🎵 What timing. The HCR piece is about the anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and how it came to be. https://open.substack.com/pub/heathercoxrichardson/p/december-10-2023

And just Sunday I discovered a beautiful work by Max Richter in which he set the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to music. It’s called “Voices”.

It’s quite stirring, full of hope and disappointment at the same time. Hope, because of its aspiration, disappointment because so many of its promises remain unfulfilled or have been broken altogether. https://album.link/us/i/1565963340

Both are worth your time to read and listen to.
