The ethereal sound you'll hear at St. Olaf

This is what I was talking about in my post on music here at the college.

I'm not normally a wind chime guy, but I find this one enchanting.

MPR did a piece on it a while back, and you can read the transcript here, so I won't waste your time here. But it's to honor the memories of Olaf students who have died while attending college.

Just click on the audio below and drift off.
