“We’ll Meet Again . . .”

THE GREAT SONGS OF WORLD WAR II

For the many who answered their country’s call, and for sweethearts and family they

left behind, there are certain songs, certain tunes that remain so inextricably linked with the

World War II era that they instantly and insistently stir memories of the hopes and fears,

grit and determination, and yearnings and aspirations experienced by young and old during

those war years: Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, Sentimental Journey, Chattanoga Choo Choo,

We’ll Meet Again, Accentuate the Positive, Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree, Come Rain or

Come Shine, I’ll be Seeing You, It’s Been a Long, Long Time and the many more.

Beyond merely highlighting the irresistible, iconic music of that era, our Conservatory

singers present a heartfelt homage to our “Greatest Generation” in honor those who fought,

those who returned and those who did not, and those who from the home front faithfully

supported our fighting forces. Taking the stage for our musical Veterans Day tributes are

sopranos Julia Hathaway and Martita Galindo, mezzo-soprano Laryssa Sadoway and

tenor Daniel Epstein. San Francisco Opera Center pianist Ron Valentino accompanies.

Martita Galindo, soprano Julia Hathaway, soprano Daniel Epstein, tenor Laryssa Sadoway, mezzo-soprano
