"We learn by doing; we become builders by building and lyre players by playing the lyre."
— Aristotle
A timeless ballad of longing and remembrance, “Memory” finds new life through the haunting sound of the ancient Greek lyre. In this unique rendition, Cordelia Hanford Foster (vocals) and Sarah Wang (a pianist prodigy playing the lyre) breathe fresh emotion into this classic.
In this video, Sarah performs on a 7-string Lyre of Aphrodite, masterfully handcrafted in Greece by the LUTHIEROS family. The filming took place during the Lyre Summer Camp 2024 at Aegina Island, Greece.

🎶 🇬🇧 Original lyrics in English
Midnight
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory?
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight, the withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan
Memory
All alone in the moonlight
I can dream of the old days
Life was beautiful then
I remember a time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again
Every streetlamp seems to weep a fatalistic warning
Someone mutters
A streetlamp sputters
And soon it will be morning
Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I mustn't give in
When the dawn comes, tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin
Burnt out ends of smokey days
The stale, cold smell of morning
A streetlamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
Touch me
It’s so easy to leave me all alone with the memories
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me, you’ll understand what happiness is
Look, a new day has begun
