Libera - Sanctus

On the topic of the castrati, I figured I would share this with everybody.

There's definitely a reason that a young boy's voice is cherished, and this song is a prime example of that. For those who believe that a boy's voice isn't beautiful -- This is definitely a trying argument.

But was it really worth it for the boys that had to go through castration to retain such a voice? It's true that their voices are amazing and quite impressive, but I don't believe that a person should lose their ability to reproduce and their manhood in order to retain such a voice.
