For the Fallen 2

For the Fallen 2 sets a deeply resonant text, a poignant reflection on sacrifice and remembrance. The words, often associated with remembrance ceremonies, speak of soldiers who will remain forever young, untouched by the weariness of age. Richard Quesnel’s SATB setting captures the solemnity and enduring impact of this sentiment. The English lyrics express a powerful promise: that those who have fallen will not be forgotten, their memory preserved from the setting of the sun to its morning rise. This secular work provides a moving opportunity for reflection and commemoration, offering a profound musical tribute to enduring legacy.
