Welcome back, Gary!

It's been a while since we've heard anything from Sing Out! about the new book. Last we heard, they were still working on it.
The Rise Up Singing page at Sing Out! says that the 15th Anniversary edition of Rise Up Singing came out in fall, 2004, "completely retypeset to make it easier to read, with corrections and track icons to match the Teaching CDs." It's $17.95 if you order online.

I've seen the new book - it's the same size and same number of pages, but the typeface is much easier to read. I haven't seen the larger "Leader's Edition" ($24.95). That one may have type big enough for a guitarist to read while playing. That would be nice.

But as for Volume II - no word. I participated in the committee that selected the songs, so I'd sure like to see it published.
