Few explanations about this album you can find out here.

The “I Remember You” album it's a William Holtry memorial. After the launch of the "For my Friend" album in 2000, Eduard has dedicated his time much more for the choir directoring activities, grace of his colaboration with MBK's foundation. From these choirs came the majority of the album casting. Therewith he has continued his componistic activity that it can be seen here, regarding his new composition "Ce judecata" (What judgement it will be soon)- a song that speak about the old Eduard's passion for the Bach contrapunct style, but also for the contemporary choral music genre.  

 « Lacrimosa » belongs to the W.A.Mozart's Requiem in re minor (here transposed in si minor). The latin text was translated by Carmen Gavril (sister of Eduard) and Eduard Teodorescu. The original text has been translated and part modified pursuant to evangelical doctrine.   

“Sus in ceruri sus” (Atop, in heavens) it's a American traditional  (Home on the range) arranged for piano andharmonica (introduction part) by Mark Hayes. Eduard has composed another lyrics pursuant to evangelical doctrine.  The piano and vocal arrangements for  “I remember You” and « Let there be Peace » are too, written by Mark Hayes.

“Only You know all my longings”  it's the english version of the old song “Tu-mi stii dorurile toate” being translated by Daniela Ionescu. 

« The Lord Bless You” and « For the Beauty of the Earth » are songs written by John Rutter.

“With the waving of Palms” it's a beautiful Palm's Day song.  “Quo Vadis” choirs sing that song from 96's at each Palm's Day fete.
