Subject: RE: Req: Song of Farewell (Now the green leaves grow)
I second Leeneia's request - that link now leads to something else entirely (showed me a nice picture of Trump to brighten up my morning...) so I would be grateful for either musical score notation or an audio link (I don't read ABC, always just used the dots). It could also go into the Digitrad.

Interesting to hear that it was sung in California too. We had good music at my school (which was well north of LA by a few hundred miles) but we never did this one. I still sing some of the stuff I learned there. Have they taken class singing out of the curricula altogether now? I keep reading news stories of dire music-slashing in education (which is a shame for a lot of brain-related reasons as well as artistic ones) but I'm so out of the loop that I don't know what's true and what's scare-journalism.

Pleeeeeeze somebody - give us a melody to go with this beauty!
