Melodies of Resilience: Wartime Songs from WW1 and WW2
Published 1 year, 2 months ago
Description
Following the Victory in Europe [VE] Day celebrations this week, I thought it timely to prepare a podcast show on the topic of wartime music. So, I have chosen three of my favourite songs - all patriotic staples - which continue to move us to this day, some 80 years later. We'll listen to some musical snippets, recall poignant lyrics, and notice an unusual feature connecting all three pieces.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.
