I was asked to make a visual rendition of John McCrae's famous poem for Remembrance Day. Here it is. The music's kinda quiet, so crank it if you want to hear it.

  • Yes, John McRea was a field surgeon. He was killed in battle not long after composing his famous poem.

  • John McRae was truly inspired to write this poem. Unless I'm mistaken he was a doctor, very affected treating the dead and the dying in Belgium.

    He was himself killed not long after. A truly great sacrifice.

  • Simply beautiful tribute.  Thank you.

  • I live in flanders fields, n I had no idea ppl from all over the world knew about the fields

  • They used this music for the film Platoon. It was not written for that purpose and was also used in the film Elephant Man. Think it's called Adagio in C strings or something similar.

  • How are you associating this music with Vietnam?
