I hope you enjoy this reading of Media Room’s review of “Pluribus,” published today. It is currently streaming at Apple TV.
Following the review is a six minute performance of Renaissance composer Johannes Ockeghem’s “Dei Gratias” performed by the Huelgas Ensemble conducted by Paul Van Nevel.
“Dei Gratias” plays over one of the most beautiful scenes in Plurbius, as the Others silently conduct an exodus from Albuquerque.
