[HANASHIR:6041] New CD and songbook at HN

[Carol Boyd Leon <cbleon...>]

Hi, friends!
Just wanted to let the folks who are attending HN later this month that I'll 
be bringing with me my brand new CD and companion songbook, "Songs From The 
Heart: Family Shabbat."  (It's so new that the printed CD insert won't be 
available until Father's Day and so I'll repost an "official" announcement 
at that time...)

"Family Shabbat" is a collection of 18 easy-to-sing Shabbat songs which I 
think will be a useful resource for songleaders/cantors/music teachers.  
Most are based on liturgy.  A few are just for children, but most are for 
everybody.  My Youth Choir and Adult Choir have been enjoying them, as have 
the kids in my religious school music classes.  Some are unison, some are 
rounds, and some have an easy harmony line.  The 65-page cardstock songbook 
includes sheet music and chords for each song and includes 
ready-to-photocopy pages of big-print lyrics to make life a little easier 
for songleaders.  The music has been very well-received by those who have 
been singing it with me over the past year, so I'm hoping it finds a home at 
your congregation, too.

The song titles are:
Shalom Shabbat Shalom (for Fri night and Havdalah)
Lights of Shabbat (candle blessing)
Come See The Candles
Hinei Mah Tov
When God Made The World
Bar'chu
The Children's Shema
You Shall Love
Mi Chamocha (with thanks to Rachelle Nelson who collaborated on it)
We Give You Thanks
V'shamru
Shalom Rav (my favorite!)
Oseh Shalom
Aleinu
V'ne'emar/Bayom Hahu
The 90-Second Adon Olam
Shalom Aleichem, Peace To Us
Y'varechecha

A youth chorus sings several of the songs on the recording and there's 
Klezmer clarinet, harp, and lots more.  For more info, please visit my web 
site at http://www.geocities.com/CBoydLeon and click on "Songs From The 
Heart."

For those not able to be at HN, I'll repost this around Father's Day after 
I've received all the CDs and cassettes and of course will be happy to take 
mail orders at that time.

'Looking forward to meeting all the friends I know from this list!
Yours,
Carol

P.S.  If you purchase a CD at HN, I promise I'll mail you the color insert 
when it becomes available!
