06 Jul 99 - 01:33 AM (#92739) Subject: MOVING ON From: RANDA1426 This song was used by a high school glee club/choir back in the mid 70's. The words to this song are: "there is a voice, that has no name,The school orchestra also had sheet music to accompany the singers. There was a flute solo. Any help you can give in finding out who wrote this music, if there are any recordings and where I can get the sheet music(piano) Will be greatly appreciated. |

Wasn't there another "Moving On" - maybe by Roger Williams - something about "like a long lonely street I keep [something or other - don't want to put in a mondegreen]. I didn't see anything in the DT under Moving on or long lonely street. I'll have to dig out the old LPs, but I don't think I even have a turntable anymore! |

09 Jul 99 - 09:42 AM (#93660) Subject: RE: MOVING ON From: Lesley N. Randa, I knew it wasn't the song you were looking for. I am guilty of thread creep. Very often a subject gets you thinking of another subject and so on and so on. The good thing about it is that if someone is doing a form search for either "Moving On" they will find reference to both here. It's one of the joys of DT.

16 Jan 05 - 12:42 PM (#1379912) Subject: RE: MOVING ON From: GUEST,J.D. Buhl Perhaps the most recent performance of "Movin' On" was mid-December by the Montera Middle School Vocal Ensemble at the school's Winter Concert. Music Director Thom Kwiatkowski accompanied the choir on piano and two students played flutes. It was one of the high points of the night. First time I'd heard the song and found this thread in looking for bio material on Hannisian. The song has such the feel of those stately African-American hymns of a certain time, like "Lift Every Voice and Sing" (sheet music was dated 1969) that I wanted to know more. Can anyone shed any light on this composer? |

10 Nov 07 - 10:32 PM (#2190906) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Movin' On (Raymond R. Hannisian) From: pattyClink How about one more "Movin' On" long-lost lyric? There was a beautiful song in the soul style I have never been able to track down, used to hear it on the radio and never caught who was singing it. I can't give you a vintage because I think it was in 'revival' mode when I was hearing it. A soul singer who has died (David Ruffin, etc) is mentioned in each verse, and the closing line is 'he's movin' on'. |

22 Apr 08 - 03:09 PM (#2322828) Subject: RE: "Movin' On" (Raymond R. Hannisian) From: GUEST,Deborah Castillo Hello, Everyone, My high school choir performed, "Movin' On," in my senior year of high school, John H. Francis Polytechnic High School, in Sun Valley, California, 1977, choir director, George Attarian. I took the sheet music home, learned it on my guitar and memorized it. Somehow I lost the sheet music. I remembered everything, the notes, lyrics and guitar chords, but I couldn't remember the actual name of the piece. I kept hunting for it under, "I Just Keep Moving," and variations of that, which are part of the lyrics. No wonder I could never find it. The actual title, "Movin' On," is not in the lyrics. 31 years later, I finally have my answer. That was really cool to see Mr. Hannissian actually answer the thread. Wow. Mr. Hannisian, if you are still reading this, thank you for writing such a beautiful and truly moving piece. I would love to have a copy of the sheet music again. Deborah |
