Toward Comprehensive Music of Beatific Harmony

 Toward Comprehensive Music of Beatific Harmony

1--Emulating Faraday, I realize my fallibility, and therefore am bold to be corrected.
2--JBJ and others have emphasized the priority of hearing over seeing.
3--Thus, let us strive for Beatific Harmony as well as Beatific Vision.
4--Barzun's 'Dawn to Decadence' limns musical forms developed.
5--For Comprehensivity we should realize that more musical form will be developed.
6--A Jack Vance science fiction story tells of using/learning different instruments when/to communicate with different individuals. S story I've heard is that Japanese individuals use English at times, to avoid class-language Japanese language.
7--Psalms are key. 'The Bible in miniature': Luther.
8--Another Luther: 'Music second only to scripture'.
9--Thus Pope Gregory's 6th-7th century Gregorian chants my have ups and downs at the end as some sort of amen to the scent of God, His ascent/descent.
10--Goedel's Incompleteness destroys non-contradiction.
11-- Schroedinger's cat destroys correspondence.
12--For Comprehensivity we need from Bible's first word, to future forms.
13--A future form would seem to necessitate new instruments, new things such as rounds, new notations, etc. Parts of the congregation can sing different tunes differently toward harmony of all, as in Providence.
14--What to do with Haik-Vantoura? With solfeggio?
15--Finding JBJ's Psalm translation which bolded significant numbers of words/concepts in a Psalm and showed the structure better is a key. Bulling shows structures within the Bible too.
15--Each book of the Bible is an opera. It is structure, so it can be sung. I shows people doing.
16--History too is structured, and can/should be sung in response as we think God's thoughts after Him.
17--Psalm 119 is comprehensive in that it uses all 22 Hebrew letters, eightly (resurrection).
18--Radically, can we hear a 4-note Beethoven's-Fifth-like beginning of the Bible in B R S-H T, using Psalm 119 to hear BFGA?
19--Can we scent a theodicy, God to earth, God to Heaven in the last 8 books of The Twelve being in chronological order, chronology being direction?
20--There is much more to tease out Parabollcally and historically in this fight.
21--Again, we can emulate Faraday, who saw all of nature as God's glory, and our glory to find it out.
22--Let us then do, in music also.

Love in King Jesus,

Chuck Hartman
PS: Add frequency and cadence, especially as 'said' and 'light' in Genesis 1:1. 
PPS: An award-winning Connie Willis science fiction story (something like 'And The All Sat Down') has aliens finally opening communication when they realized we began to be intelligent enough since we cang in choirs.
