"  I Loved You " This song is based on a poem written several hundred years ago by Alexander Pushkin, Russia's greatest poet. He was descended from a line of African princes and is still a cherished figure in Russian artistic circles.
The poem was set to music by Claus Ogerman, a German arranger and orchestrator and sung by the Singers Unlimited. The orchestra is led by Robert Farnon, noted Canadian composer and arranger. This is a marriage between Russian Poetry and modern classical composition and sung by an amazing group of singers very much in the Great American Songbook tradition.
