Labeling any song as your "favorite" is very difficult. But this song has consistently been in my top five for the last two years, since I first discovered it. The song is entitled "Gabriel's Oboe" and my recording was performed by the violinist Jenny Oaks Baker. A friend of mine recently introduced me to a version I love even more. This one is performed by Yo-Yo Ma.
This song is so many things to me. It's the song I chose to listen to on the top of the sacred Mount Tai in Shandong, China. It's the song I shared with my first true love. It fills me with emotion every time. To me it's come to represent life and spiritual growth - struggles and victories.
And sometimes...it represents my relationship with a special person.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
