The San Francisco Chronicle (!) has a fine interview with classical pianist Jacqueline Chew, who describes her journey from Prebyterianism to atheism to the Catholic Church. It's been a while since I've listened to Messiaen's "Vingt Regards sur l'Enfant-Jesus" ("Twenty Contemplations of the Infant Jesus") — I recall that's it's a very demanding and intense piece — but I may have to give it another spin.
