Conference Memory

The fact that yesterday’s choice is associated in my mind with a quite specific time and place has led me to the ‘theme’ for the next few days. I am sure that everyone can relate to the idea that hearing a piece of music can transport you back to somewhere/sometime.

Today’s music I first heard as the music accompanying the fountain show at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas. I was there for a conference and, although they have a selection of different pieces of music – this is the one that seemed to be playing every time I chose to hang around and watch the show. At the time, I didn’t know this song – it was only after I came home that I tracked down the recording.

Andrea Bocelli : Time to say Goodbye

If you would rather watch the fountains there are a lot of versions on YouTube including :
