17 Jan 05 - 02:52 AM (#1380323) Subject: Index: Sing Together: A Girl Scout Songbook (1949) From: Joe Offer I told Azizi I hadn't seen a copy of Sing Together earlier than 1973, so I pleaded with him to post the index of his 1936 edition (above). I guess I was wrong. I found a 1949 edition, with an introduction by Janet E. Tobitt, Music Consultant to the Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. Tobitt says the 1949 edition is a combination of the Girl Scout Song Book and Sing Together (apparently the 1936 edition that Azisi posted). Tobitt, by the way, is the author of The Dittly Bag (1946), a book sold and the Girl Scouts, but which is not a Girl Scout publication. Here's the index: Sing Together: A Girl Scout Songbook (Girl Scouts of the U.S.A., 1949) Allelujah All Is Silent America the Beautiful A-Roving Ash Grove, The (with descant) Au Clair de la Lune Australia Bailiff's Daughter of Islington, The Basque Lullaby, A Battle Hymn of the Republic, The Bell, The Billy Boy Birch Tree, The Blow the Man Down Blow, Ye Winds Boston Come-All-Ye, The By the Clear Running Fountain Call John the Boatman Chairs to Mend Charlie Is My Darling (with descant) Cheshire Hunt, The Children's Song, The Come and Let Us Dance Come, Follow Coo, Coo Cradle Song Cuckoo, The Dakota Hymn (Lacquiparle) Dogie Song, The Donkey Riding Drink to Me Only with Thine Eyes (with descant) Early to Bed Fare Thee Well Farmer's Daughters, The..

17 Jan 05 - 08:43 AM (#1380508) Subject: RE: Scout Songbooks Index PermaThread From: Jeri Joe, I have a couple of wee songbooks that are probably not Scout songbooks, but ones I got at camps. While many songs and hymns are well-known, there are some real gems in there, and include quite a few traditional songs such as "The Merry Golden Tree," and a few from a family named "Ritchie." They don't go in this thread, though, as they aren't "Scout" songbooks. Any suggestions on where those indexes might go?

The contents are, essentially, those of the original 1921 edition, with an extra ten pages, the contents of which are marked "(+)". The book contains virtually no music, only words.

18 Jan 05 - 01:07 PM (#1381426) Subject: RE: Scout Songbooks Index PermaThread From: JohnInKansas A site I found more or less by accident some time ago. Pack 86 Songs gives lyrics for quite a number of songs. Some are obviously "Generic Cub Scout Material" and quite a few are claimed as "original compositions by Clare Mansfield." A copyright is claimed for the originals, but permission is given for non-profit (Cub Scout) use. The "list of songs" at the top of the page apparently shows only the ones by Mansfield(?). Highlight, Copy, Paste Special – Unformatted Text gets about 97 pages of lyrics. There are a few notes interspersed that indicate sources for some individual songs. Some, but not all, give a "To the Tune of: " notation. A few songs indicate possible links to "music" and/or "midis" but I haven't checked those out. I can't really judge how "valuable" these lyrics may be, but someone with more recent Scouting contact might find something useful there. John |

06 Mar 10 - 02:53 AM (#2857360) Subject: RE: Scout Songbooks Index PermaThread From: Joe Offer Boy, Melissa, I've looked and looked. Here's what I found from the Girl Scouts themselves: Musical Heritage The love of music started with founder Juliette Gordon Low, who used the Kent County Song Book, which contained folk songs from the British Isles. As Girl Scouting grew in the U.S., there was need for a songbook that reflected American life. The first songbook published by the Girl Scouts, Girl Scout Song Book, was in 1925 and is a collection of tunes recommended by the girls themselves. "Singing," the foreword began, "is one of the most important expressions of good fellowship." The Girl Scout Song Book was considered very progressive for its time. It featured Negro spirituals and songs about cowboys, patriotism, sea shanties, religion, and included songs from all over Europe. In the 1930s, Janet "Toby" Tobitt joined the Girl Scouts and played a key role in shaping the organization's musical history. First a camp counselor and later a music consultant for GSUSA, Toby brought her musicianship and passion for collecting folk songs to Girl Scouts. She designed her Sing Together songbook of 1936 to provide material for Scouts' Own ceremonies and other occasions, believing in the power of music to bring everyone together. -Joe- |

06 Mar 10 - 03:21 AM (#2857371) Subject: RE: Scout Songbooks Index PermaThread From: Melissa The first songbook has a green cover..picture with a tree and girls. When I worked for the council, I meant to copy the index of it so I could dig up some songs to fit the scouting era I favor but never did get it done. The first GS handbook startled me by being so fanatical/odd. The second handbook was first printed in early 20's (1920 or 1921) and that one delights me. I didn't even know there was a songbook printed alongside the handbook (handbook revision around '26, but same basic book until the early 30's) Now I just keep wanting a copy. Maybe I'll be the one to come up with an index--I do bid it on ebay occasionally. It seems like I remember reading something about the songbook being made around the time of a big gathering..possibly the first International Gathering? (I've forgotten what those gatherings are called) Something like that would have been a good time for collecting recommendations from the girls to make the book. 'Kent County Song Book' would be neat to see. |

06 May 12 - 09:36 PM (#3347644) Subject: RE: Scout Songbooks Index PermaThread From: JohnInKansas Somewhat peripheral to finding "Boy Scout Music" is a 1969 printing of a "Music Merit Badge" book that (for no reason I can think of) I recently scanned to a pdf. The book is "about music" but has almost no music in it. There is one "scout song" that IIRC is called "On My Honor" and about 15 or so "bugle calls" that appear to be mostly scout hallucinations unrelated to "standard calls." [Note that I scan to clear the bookshelves, so the original book is "gone."] Since I scan to "print standards" the file on hand is 46,499 KB, (72 pages) which is a little large for some email servers, and "smallifying" is a bit tedious; but if someone would be really interested I might be able to find it again to figure out a way to give more information or get a copy made that would be more suitable for sending somewhere.
