Seven men were gathered

Singing in Croatian

A capella

With a rich tone and harmonies

Accentuated

By their choice of space

With its acoustics

And ambience

In Diocletian’s palace in Split

What moved me to tears?

The ability of music

To share passion

And connect souls

In a moment, uncapturable

For which one must be

Present

Or as Keats put it:

‘Truth is beauty, beauty truth

that’s all ye know on earth

and all ye need to know’
