Music and Faith
Finding Faith ~ Liturgical Music
A woman aged in her fifties who is a successful architect meets a man of her age during intermission at a production of the opera Thaïs, by Massenet. The man is a lapsed monk of the Benedictine order who has education in philosophy and theology. Stimulating conversations follow, more music, and eventually romance. She is suffering from heart disease. They go to church and discover a world that still thrives amid postmodern cultural decay.
Michael Dodaro is published in First Things Journal of Religion in Public Life, The New Oxford Review, and extensively online. He has written documentation for software developers for more than twenty years. This musical novella is his most recent fiction title. He lives in the Pacific Northwest with his wife, soprano Diane Althaus. Both are musicians with operatic credits and decades singing liturgical music.
