[HANASHIR:2843] Fr. sephardic?Adon Olam

[Rachelle and Howard Shubert <shubert...>]

The subject of the Adon Olam in Gates of Song, listed as French Separdic,
has come up a couple of times on this list.  (It is sometimes affectionately
referred to as "the French Navy version" because it sounds like a march.  I
am now teaching this very singable melody  to my adult choir. The choir
members and I agree that there is nothing in the melody which suggests
Sephardic roots. Could this be an error.   Anyone have more information?
