‘Memorare’ is the most recent single from Le Concorde’s album, ‘Second Mansions’, which comes out in the present day, the nineteenth of September, and wow, what a strategy to go!
We’ve adopted Le Concorde’s journey by Catholic mysticism from March this yr, beginning with ‘Corpus Christi‘, his dedication to the now Saint Carlos Acutis, who was canonised earlier this month. Since then we’ve journeyed with him to Santiago de Compostela, and his observe, ‘Saint James‘. Final month, he dropped the no much less gorgeous, ‘Morning By Morning‘. All three have contained a sure 80s ingredient, calling to thoughts the likes of ABC, Van Morrison, Spandau Ballet et al. ‘Memorare’ continues with this, in Le Concorde’s homage to Mary, Mom of God.
The unique ‘Memorare’ has been historically attributed to the abbot St. Bernard of Clairvaux from the twelfth century, and was a prayer to ask Mary for her help and her grace, particularly once we really feel most troubled in our day by day lives.
In La Concorde’s palms, it’s nonetheless a prayer, and you are feeling his ecstasy as he sings; it’s a devotional set in opposition to a sweeping choral vocal, whereas hovering guitars and mild percussion fill in any gaps left behind. It’s superbly transcendent, Le Concorde’s voice highly effective and nigh on mystical. It’s a becoming observe to come back forward of the album.
