Cantamus Training Choir performs 'I Remember' (Quartel)

‘I Remember’ by Canadian composer Sarah Quartel contemplates friendship through the prism of the natural world. Lyrics: I remember, I remember Days of sunshine, days of rain. I remember, I remember Knowing spring will come again. And when I sing, I remember All the wonder I have seen: Waters reaching the horizon, Waves that carry you and me. I remember this, my friend. I remember, I remember Golden summers when corn is high. I remember, I remember Branches reaching to the sky. And when I sing, I remember All the harvests of the field. Fruits of love that lie in waiting, All the bounty now revealed. I remember this, my friend. In my song there’s a race through a wild green meadow, The sunshine bright in my eyes. In my song there’s a day by the cool of the water, Knowing you’re by my side; Knowing you’re by my side again. I remember, I remember All the loved ones I have known. I remember, I remember All they’ve taught me, how I’ve grown. When I sing I remember Many lives that share my song; Brought together in a moment Finding somewhere to belong. And I remember you my friend, I remember you my friend.
