(Ryan Young / Cornell University) Published: August 26, 2025 Comments David Sheaff, Class of 1963 14 Sep, 2025 One of my favorite memories, walking down libe slope on a crisp afternoon, hearing “The Evening Song”. Reply Bayla Singer, Class of 1960 14 Sep, 2025 65 years after graduation, retired in Florida: My picture window faces west, and just about every evening during the spectacular sunset, my mind sings softly “As the sun sets / in the crimson of the west, and the voices of the day/ murmur low and sink to rest…” Some things never leave you. Reply Barry Baron, Class of 1978 15 Sep, 2025 I sang in the Cornell Glee Club from 1974 to 1978. We Baritones had a rich and beautiful harmony part for the Evening Song, that remains close to my heart.
