The National Memorial Day Concert is on PBS tonight (at 8 p.m. most places, I think, but check local listings).

I went to the open dress rehearsal in D.C. last night. Idina Menzel (my first time hearing her live) and John Schneider were in great voice. Sarah Brightman sounded a little breathy and strained in her first song, but seemed to get it together for her second. Hopefully she'll have that fixed by tonight! On the whole, it's an excellent concert.

I heard part of Ms. Brightman's performance on the news. Did she sing Pie Jesu?
