It has been my tradition to compose a song during the week for the participants to perform.<\/em><\/p>\n When the pandemic forced us all into isolation and prevented us from gathering together to sing, I responded to our new reality with the idea of creating a song that could be learned and performed remotely.<\/em><\/p>\n My hope was that the song would bring some much-needed joy to these challenging times, while also sustaining the bonds among those who share a deep love for CAMMAC. At the same time, I wanted to pay tribute to the wonderful camp that we all longed to visit once again.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”48″][vc_single_image image=”59793″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” image_hovers=”false” link=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/eDI3mhovZaQ”][vc_empty_space height=”48″][vc_column_text]Once the song was composed, M\u00e9lodie set the virtual choir project into motion. With the assistance of Kevin O\u2019Neil, she created a template and tracks to which people could sing and recorded her vocals while accompanying herself on the piano. Members, teachers and friends of CAMMAC were invited to submit recordings of their parts, which Kevin O\u2019Neil edited and compiled to create this touching video.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”48″][vc_single_image image=”59795″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” image_hovers=”false” link=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/eDI3mhovZaQ”][vc_empty_space height=”15″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
