Thread Name: Moravian music?
Subject: RE: Moravian music?
I've sent Joe a MIDI of the song I remember as Moravian.

When I was in grade school, we had a set of music texts called 'New Music Horizons.' This was in Chicagoland, and our books seemed to include a noticeable amount of music from eastern Europe.

No surprise. For example, I have read that Chicago has the largest number of Polish people outside of Poland. Recently we were in Chicagoland, and we visited the Czech and Slovak museum. (small but charming) Moravia is now part of the Czech Republic and was also covered by the museum. I looked for music, but it doesn't have a gift shop yet.

Earlier, we had landed at Midway airport. It is the only airport I have ever been in where they announced Mass over the PA.

Dennis, that is most interesting about the community in Fulneck.
