Memory. Played on Alto recorder.

#recorderfun #musicfromthemusicals #AulosHaka I hope you enjoy my instrumental cover of "Memory" from the musical "Cats". I played my Aulos Haka plastic Alto recorder and the accompanying backing track is from #Sing2piano. Here is the link to it:    • Memory Karaoke - Cats | Elaine Paige (Kara...   Memory" is a show tune composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber, with lyrics by Trevor Nunn based on poems by T. S. Eliot. It was written for the 1981 musical Cats, where it is sung primarily by the character Grizabella as a melancholic remembrance of her glamorous past and as a plea for acceptance. "Memory" is the high part of the musical and by far its best-known song, having achieved mainstream success outside of the musical. Lyrics: Memory Turn your face to the moonlight Let your memory lead you Open up enter in If you find there The meaning of what happiness is Then a new life will begin Memory All alone in the moonlight I can smile at the old days I was beautiful then I remember The time I knew what happiness was Let the memory Live again Burnt out ends of smoky days The stale cold smell of morning A street lamp dies Another night is over Another day is dawning Daylight I must wait for the sunrise I must think of a new life And I mustn't give in When the dawn comes Tonight will be a memory too And a new day will begin Sunlight through the trees in summer Endless masquerading Like a flower as the dawn is breaking The memory is fading Touch me It's so easy to leave me All alone with the memory Of my days in the sun If you touch me You'll understand what happiness is Look, a new day Has begun.
