[HANASHIR:6122] Cool New Songbook by Cantor Wally

[Josh Miller <jmiller...>]

Hello Everyone!

With Hava Nashira right around the corner, I thought I'd drop a shameless
plug onto the list about another great music resource!

My friend (and musical colleague) Cantor Wally Schachet-Briskin just came
out with a brand new songbook with words, music, and guitar chords to great
tunes off two great albums: "Fixin' the World" and "Cantor Wally"!

I mention it because it's a damn fine collection of creative, thoughtful,
educational, and (some) hysterical songs that have been camp-tested and
fully approved by many a camper from UAHC Camp Swig and Camp Newman (not to
mention from his synagogue down in southern California). In fact some of
them were so popular at camp that they found their way onto Shir l'Yom
Chadash, the Camp Swig and Camp Newman CD that I had the privilege of
working on (Wally's songs on that CD include: "Fixin' the World", "V'sam'ti
Makom", and "May the Holy One")... 

Anyhow, if you want to learn more about Cantor Wally's Music or Cantor
Wally himself I recommend you surf to http://www.cantorwally.com, where in
addition to order forms, and info on Cantor Wally, he has posted his entire
HUC thesis on the "The Music of Reform Youth", which is a long but
interesting read! :)

I'll be bringin' some songbooks and extra CDs to Hava Nashira as well if
you want to grab me at some point during the weekend to take a look at 'em...

See ya all in two days!
