Bach's Fugue in E minor has wonderful interweaving harmonies, as we float over the night lights of China.


This movie features Anna Przybysz, organist. We see her fingers and feet dance over the keys and pedals of this lovely organ in Katowice Poland. Anna is an award-winning organist and plays with such heart, soul – and skill.

The flight path takes us over China at night. Clouds drape over the city lights nestled in the mountains and valleys. Then we fly over the coast and on to the #Philippines. We imagine ourselves in the #ISS, mesmerized by the Earth below.
