A collection of patriotic/traditional American songs, one of which is a slave spiritual.
Two identical 37-page teacher's guides are included in the purchase. Also included is an unopened cassette tape with singers singing the songs on Side A, and instrumental accompaniment tracks (w/ no voices) on Side B.
The identical teacher's guides include:
the musical notes and chord symbols for each song,
a page of information regarding the background and meaning of the song,
and a reproducible page in cursive with the words to each song.
These songs are included in the set:
"Follow the Drinking Gourd"
"This Land is Your Land"
"The Star Spangled Banner"
"Take Me Out to the Ball Game"
"Yankee Doodle"
"Oh, Susanna"
"Old Texas"
"Sweet Betsy from Pike"
"Erie Canal"
"When Johnny Comes Marching Home"
"I've Been Working on the Railroad"
"Clementine"
I have a Master of Conducting degree: The music for all the songs in the printed book has been arranged and printed in singable keys for children's voices. I assume the keys on the tape are the same as those in the book. However, since the cassette tape is unopened, I cannot confirm the performance keys of the music on the tape.
