Who hasn’t dreamed of seeing the face of a lost lover or of a deceased loved one?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Jean-Pierre Ferland wrote a heartfelt song about his beloved’s face. It was released in 1960 and its music was composed by Mr. Paul de Margerie. This French-Canadian song is entitled “Ton visage<\/em>” [“Your Face”<\/em>].<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ahead of his national funeral (https:\/\/shorturl.at\/BQe1j<\/a> ; https:\/\/shorturl.at\/ayQdN<\/a>), which will take place at the Marie-Reine-du-Monde Cathedral Basilica (June 1st, 2024; Montreal, Qu\u00e9bec), Ms. Elaine Thibert paid tribute to Ferland by recording “Ton visage<\/em>“. Bravo to her for the moving performance. Congratulations to the talented pianist, called Mr. Emmanuel Pitois, and thanks also to “groupe Paradoxe<\/em>” for this beautiful production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the YouTube<\/em> video below, if you are interested, you can listen to the original song by Mr. Ferland himself. For those of you who do not understand French, you can find a quick English translation at the end of this post. Bambi is grateful to her friend Mr. Google Translate<\/em> who stayed up late with her to help translate it :). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

May Mr. Ferland’s memory be eternal. May Qu\u00e9bec and Canada always cherish not just his pen and his voice, but also his unforgettable face. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
