Songs We Forgot to Remember - John Aler

Songs We Forgot to Remember John Aler, tenor Grant Gershon, piano
John Aler, tenor Grant Gershon, piano John Aler, one of the most acclaimed lyric tenors on the international stage, and already the recipient of two Grammys, has put together a sentimental trip down memory lane. These are songs that were very popular in the '20s, '30s, and '40s, and sung in every home where sheet music was to be found. (Remember the book of favorites called '56 Songs You Like to Sing'?) In fact, the distinguished American tenor's suggested subtitle for the album is 'Songs from the Piano Bench.' 'Songs We Forgot to Remember' features the American tenor John Aler in a program of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century balladry, the kind of repertoire made famous by singers like John McComack, Nelson Eddy and John Charles Thomas. He is accompanied by pianist (and choral director) Grant Gershon. program 1. I Hear You Calling Me [Charles Marshall; Harold Harford] (3:11) 2.
