Inspiring Music for Uncertain Times
Annie Picard has been at NPU since 1998, teaching our undergraduate and Master of Music students voice lessons and classes. To encourage us now, she has selected music about connection: connection to our earth, emotions, beautiful sounds, joie de vivre, amazing musicians, words, nature, freedom, and peace.
“This journey is so timely and reminds us that the world will be okay, storms included!”
“When I want to feel 鈥榗ool鈥� I put this on.聽聽It never disappoints!”

These are times of great angst among our students and colleagues. During times like this, Jesus always took his disciples aside to pray, as in his hour of deepest suffering, during the Passion Week. He said, 鈥淲atch and Pray.鈥�
Scripture of the Week
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”
鈥�2 Timothy 1:7
Stay safe and healthy!
