[musictlk] Glory Federation

Tue Mar 8 03:42:38 UTC 2011

Hi, All,

We used to sing some of them at the banquet.  NAPUB carried the 
announcement of the retirement of Friendnk Kort Cykle.  I well 
remember how tentative he was at first when he'd be on our 
convention program.  As time went on, he was working with us more 
and more and we with him.  He finally reached the point in his 
relationship with us that he would even request the library song 
at banquet.  Wouldn't it be wonderful if he came this year--just 
because he wants to? I'm not trying to steer this discussion away 
from the songs, but I felt this was worth mentioning.  Maybe the 
Performing Arts Division ought to make a new recording of all the 
songs and they should be re-embossed as well.  EVELYN

Oh, it also occurs to me that a couple people with  digital 
recorders
could record any sing-a-long we do, (even a quite informal one) 
for
the purpose of keeping a record of the music.

Joshua,

The songbook is words only, with tune names listed; no music 
notation
anywhere.  It might not be available, but, as Evelyn has 
suggested,
contact our Independence Market directly.

Blessings,

Linda

The recording would do me more good, (as a musician.) I haven't 
read
Braille music, since 5th grade, so I'm a little rusty.  I'm 
wanting
another Braille music book.  Blessings, Joshua

 Hi, Josh,

 I can't remember now if that songbook was free or charged for.
 Anyway, go to the NFB site and find the Independence Market.
 Then find the literature listings and see if you find it.

 I was at the endependence market in Dallas, and I didn't find 
any
 songbooks.  If there are some still available, please let me
 know.
 Blessings, Joshua

  The words are in the 1990 song book.  The NFB of maryland made 
a
 recording a
  little over 10 years ago, but the cassettes are all sold out.
 Copies of the
  song book may still be for sale from the Independence Market.

  Hi, it's Joshua Lester.  When I was at the convention, last
 year, a group of
  federationists were singing something about the "Federation,"
  to the tune of, "The Battle Hymn of the republic." I couldn't
 understand
  what they were singing, because of the applause of the others 
in
 attendance.
  Could someone please give me those lyrics?
  Thanks, Joshua
