Glowing Hearts Music is presenting Juno award winner Willie P. Bennett’s new recording of Black Against The Wall – in commemoration of Remembrance Day on Nov. 11.
The song, written by Ottawa’s Charlie Sohmer (recent winner of the Grand Prize 2007 OCFF Songs From The Heart award), is a story about an old soldier, looking back in time, recalling battles and friends, long gone.
Against the backdrop of a string quintet, arranged by Tom Annand, Bennett’s vocal and harmonica, evoke images of longing and lament – and cause listeners to reflect on the sacrifices made by those who died, and by those who survived. The song is available at www.nutshell-music.com/charliesohmer/music_wall.php.
