Dies Irae



Yesterday we went off to the surgery to collect our medication. The Fox went in while I sat in the car & waited. I thought I’d put on the radio. It’s pre-set on Classic FM.

A piece of music started – Verdi’s Dies Irae (literally “Day of Anger”). As the music began the thunder rolled. The lightning flashed. The rain pounded on the car. I could hardly hear the music for the extra accompaniment.

A dies irae indeed.
