Lynn Koch | Garton Mother's Lullaby (14) | Garton Mother's Lullaby | 08 Dec 97 |
Does anyone know the origin of Garton Mother's Lullaby? From its title I infer that it comes from France, but I have no confirmation of this. It appears on Disney's recording for children with AIDS, called "For Our Children", where it's sung by Meryl Streep. The last phrase goes something like "The crickets sing you a lullaby/Beside the dying fire." I also included an instrumental version of it on my recording of folk songs for children, "The Fox, Old Blue and Dinosaurs Too". |
