Thread Name: songs to warm up a song circle
Subject: RE: songs to warm up a song circle
I've heard them referred to as line songs, or lining (as is described in To Kill a Mockingbird when the children go to church with Calpurnia). Only a few members of the church could read, so they read the song line by line and sang it that way.
