Why is it that we can recall the lyrics and melody of a song from our childhood, but we struggle to find our keys in the morning, or find ourselves unable to remember peoples’ names? Time and age can cause organized memories to gradually become a maze of fragments, but music often remains the one thing that helps us to remember who we are. As memory fades, is music the final conduit for our memories and connection to our past? In Wanting Memories, Cantus explores the unique and enduring relationship between music and memory in all of our lives. Through selections that include timeless tunes like “Over the Rainbow” and “What a Wonderful World” and anchored by Ysaÿe M. Barnwell’s “Wanting Memories”, this performance traverses the realms of nostalgia and family, loss and love, grief, laughter, fear and hope. Featuring a special appearance by the inspiring voices of Fox Valley Memory Project’s “On a Positive Note” chorus. WATCH VIDEO
