Silver Burdett School SongbooksSchool songbooks often have abbreviated or sanitized versions of songs - but they also often have tunes that we may be missing, which is one reason why I started this thread. To find a song, use [CTRL-F] on your keyboard, and put in a pertinent word from the song title. from Q:

Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: Joe Offer Date: 29 Apr 04 - 04:16 PM There's another thread on a play-party song called "Four White Horses," and Animaterra says she found it in a achool songbook. I wanted to post the tune, so I looked through lots of songbooks, but couldn't find the song. I have lots of school songbooks, but it's a hassle to look through them each time I want to find a song. If I post the index of each songbook here, the song should turn up in Mudcat search. If you have songbook you'd like to index, be sure to put the title of the book and authors, series name, publication date and publisher, and grade level. Let's reserve this thread for school and children's songbooks only. Thanks. -Joe Offer- One thing I forgot to mention - I'm assuming that the people who post these indexes have the books in their possession, and that they are able to post the songs they've index if requested. If you do NOT have ready access to the songbook you're indexing, be sure to note that. Thanks. -Joe Offer- |
Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: wysiwyg Date: 29 Apr 04 - 04:29 PM Do you mean, post the text of the table of contents or index, so we get a list of song titles? That is, if one has a scanner that grabs text. Do you also want publisher info from the front of the book and the year of publication? ~S~ |
Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 29 Apr 04 - 06:33 PM Joe, please give author and full title. Silver Burdett has been publishing and revising these books since the 1890s, different authors. the Book 4 that you haven't listed- Author- McConathy et al. Title- The Music Hour, 4th Book (1937, etc.) First Book etc.- Title and author depends on edition- Author- Marsell et al. Title- I Like the City, 1st Book (1956, etc.) or Author- Eleanor Smith Title- A First book in Vocal Music (1901, etc. and etc. I thought of that, Q, but each book has a laundry-list of authors, and most stay the same even when the authors' names change. I'll think about it, and may try to get around to adding names later. -Joe Offer- |
Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 29 Apr 04 - 08:04 PM Joe, I sure wish I had this much time on my hands! I have several of the books you've listed, as well as other grade levels of some of the above editions, but it's going to be some time before I can post the indices (of course, now that I have your snail address...) (I never did find the MacMillan book with Four White Horses, but I have since found it in 3 other books at school! I'll look for them tomorrow) Allison |
Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: JohnInKansas Date: 30 Apr 04 - 05:28 AM Well Joe - I thought I'd grab a couple of my old school song books and do a quicky, but - they have no Table of Contents and no usable index. Only a "by subjects" list, with multiple repeats. Also lots of "discussion" headings that look like songs in the list but aren't. I do have one called New Music Horizons, Book 6 that is the 6th grade Kansas "official" music book, 1946 edition, from a recent garage sale outing. It seems to have some songs that aren't listed above, but it's going to take some serious sorting to figure out a list. It is another Silver-Burdett ©, but is printed by the Kansas State Printer. A couple of others seem mostly to repeat parts of your lists. John |

Could you tell if the play song maybe uses the same tune? I haven't pulled the book, but my index indicates he has a "score" (my index key for "more than a single line melody") for this one. John |

Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 30 Apr 04 - 09:38 PM My daughter, retired teacher, has told me of the fate of these books in this city (Some Scott-Burdetts were used,dates uncertain. The older school where she first taught had a basement filled with these and other old texts. In a general cleanup they were trucked to landfill (Before recycling here). I would guess that the same fate overtook these books elsewhere. Teaching with these books ended here about 1980. |
Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: Joe Offer Date: 01 May 04 - 02:53 AM The Follett and Silver Burdett books are really quite wonderful. Oftentimes, a song won't have more than one verse, but the books have broad collections of traditional songs. The illustrations are good, too. I have a mixed collection of other books, particularly the Birchard "Singing School" series. The Brichard index setup is a bit more difficult to scan, so they'll have to wait until next week. Thanks to all who have contributed to this project. Keep 'em coming. -Joe Offer- |
Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: JohnInKansas Date: 01 May 04 - 09:07 AM Joe O My Word compilation shows 2,073 song title entries so far. Not bad for a few hours. The thing I find surprising is how few "multiples" there are. There are a few exceptions that each appear in 5 or 6 of the books, but not all that many. There are quite a few that are in two or three books, but even that amount of repetition is much lower than I would have expected, given the "family relationship" between the books. With comments removed, book id once each, and one line per song title, I've got a 47 page TOC in Word. Of course that's at 12 pt type, so I can read it. I may have to cut back to 4 pt to save some disk space. John |
Subject: Index: BBC Time & Tune Series From: Nigel Parsons Date: 03 May 04 - 08:36 PM In Britain, apart from the book noted above (The National Song Book) and another book (Folk Songs of Many Lands: Curwen), the major educational influence has been small song books issued by the BBC (British Broadcating Corporation) for use in schools, titled Time & Tune.

Juvenile Singing School: 1st edition 1837, 2nd printing 1839-1840, 128 pp. Two popular books by these authors were the "Boston (Mass.)Glee Book.... Glees, Madrigals and Rounds...," 264 pp., 1838, Wilkins, Carter and Palmer Co., and "The Odeon," a collection of secular melodies, 304 pp., 1837, Wilkins and Carter. Also a number of books of church music, hymns, etc. |

The Juvenile Singing School was first published in 1837, but the page number is 129. I'll post the contents of other songbooks by Mason later: Lowell Mason, The Boston School Song Book (Boston: Wilkins, Carter and Co., [1840], 1844); Lowell Mason & George James Webb, eds., The Song-Book of the School-Room (Boston: Wilkins, Carter, & Co., [1847], 1850); Lowell Mason, The Song-Garden; A Series of School Music Books, Progressvely Arranged, Bks 1-2 (New York/Boston: Mason Brothers, 1864); Lowell Mason, Mason's Normal Singer (New York: Mason Brothers, 1856). The Odeon, I think, isn't a school songbook ("designed for adult singing schools, and for social music parties"). |

Ives, Jr.'s The Juvenile Lyre, submitted for copyright in 1831, but published in 1832. Incidentally, "Mary Had a Little Lamb" was first set to music (but not the presently know melody) in The Juvenile Lyre (James J. Fuld, The Book of World-Famous Music, 5th ed., 2000, p. 355). |

Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: GUEST,.gargoyle Date: 28 May 04 - 11:27 PM Howdy JOE....grand idea....thank you.
What is the pro-toe-call....for this thread?
Do you want the Publisher, Date and Table of Contents of published text-books only?
Do you want the owners of said texts to scour the DT for deviations....and post only those?
Should there be splits for texts from Utah (sometimes VERY skewed)or for publisher's (Prentice-Hall, Halcourt-Brace, LittleJohn, McGuffy?)
Perhaps, a "scanned page" location for texts out of copyright? Next to the original Dick Greenfield's Digital Tradition....this could become the hottest new areas of the MudCat.
Sincerely,
Entries should include songbook title, publication date, name of authors, name of the songbook series, grade level, and the entire table of contents. This thread is getting long, so I may move some of the contents to other threads - but post them here and let me do the moving. -Joe Offer- |

Is there or could there be a separate Permathread for these? - Charles
I'm amazed at the books in our collection, Charles. I've found lots from the 1950's and 60's, but yours are so much older. Thanks to everyone for all the help. -Joe Offer- |

Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: cetmst Date: 06 Jun 04 - 12:39 PM A Google search just brought me more information than I'll ever absorb about John Rippon (1751-1836), Jeremy Belknap (1744-1798), Timothy Dwight (1752-1817) and the Williams College collection. I'll abandon hymns for now and go back to school songbooks. - Charles |

Subject: RE: School Songbook Index PermaThread From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 06 Jun 04 - 07:40 PM Note on "Folk-Songs and Other Songs For Children," Jane Byrd Radcliffe-Whitehead, 1903. "In America, if we except the negro and Indian melodies, some college songs, and a few others, we can hardly be said to have as yet any folk songs." We know this to be wrong, but in 1903, collecting by Sharpe and others was only beginning. The rich store of folk songs found by Sharp, Brown, Randolph, Cox, Lomax and many others was not yet unearthed. Although unaware of American folk songs, Jane Byrd Radcliffe-Whitehead is known for her research on carols; she brought many of them to public attention for the first time. |
