Aggiungi al carrelloSoft cover. Condizione: Fair. In the opening paragraph of the one page introduction to each of the eight West Indian Songs and Folk tunes, Edric Connor indicates that this book was published 'in the hope that future present and future generations of my people may preserve the music and culture which is their unique possession.' This statement is dated: 24th August, 1945. The songs include everything from a Shouters' version of the Lord's Prayer to Time for Man to Go Home. The sheet music appears in a stapled quarto format. Condition (external): the card covers are quite frayed in places with some closed tears (<10 mm); particularly along/near the spine - see main image. Condition (internal): printed on off-white paper; with hints of tanning (perhaps). The main condition-related issue internally is that this publication was clearly used rather than left on a shelf. So the Lord's Prayer features ink musical notation above each staff (image). NB. included in this purchase are a number of additional (hand written) scores for the Lord's Prayer and also songs entitled, the Glow Within and Island in the Sun. pp. 33/4to (see image). More information/images on request. Please note that, depending on destination, we may request a payment to cover any extra shipping/postage charges. Proceeds to Amnesty International. Abe2441.
