Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Pretty Little Baby Child
Dear brother/Sister in Christ,
                                  Sub - Requesting to help us to obtain permission to use the lyric and the tune of the song 'Pretty Little Baby Child' composed by SHARON RICE, WILBURN RICE, JOHN JARVIS.

                  I am Samuel.J.Gnanaraj, from Chennai South India. I have a great passion for Western Music. I am singing in a reputed Male voice Choir (Lutheran Men's Voice, Chennai South India) for more than 38 Years. I am a Western Music Vocal trainer. My web site is www.loisamvocals.com. I am also conducting a Family mixed voice Quartet called 'Anointed'.
               
                  Now I am planning to cut an English Christmas Audio CD with my daughter,(she has completed her 5th grade in London Trinity Collage of Music) just for the passion of singing Christmas Songs. I am requesting you to help me to get permission by sending us the contact details of the composer or the rights holder, for the song 'Pretty little Baby' composed by SHARON RICE, WILBURN RICE, JOHN JARVIS.

               Audio music CD Marketing in India is not very comforting. We can sell CDs for only 60 Rupees. That is less than one USD. (Today's exchange rates 1 USD = 63.25 Indian rupees and one Pound Sterling = 98.98 INR) So getting back the investment and the production Cost itself is not sure.

             More over people who like English songs prefer to buy English CDs sung by Western singers to Indian made. Therefore this is not for personal gain but a passion project. So we humbly request you to help us to get permission to use this song for our project.

Thank you.

With Christ centered Love
