HI KANTARI: NABOs
Mini-songbook project |
This pocket-size songbook is an effort to
get us singing some more! Entitled
Hi Kantari ("You're a Basque Singer") the booklet is a
multi-faceted promotion of the Basque language, mus and of course
singing. These pocket-sized booklets were made available to NABO
member organizations who then distributed them.

The pocket-size booklet that collects several dozen songs that
were selected based on the following criteria including: general familiarity of the song
either here or in the Basque Country; variety of songs from different
parts of the Basque Country and from fast to slow songs; a simple tune
that's easy to follow, and is it a good sitting around a table or
standing in a circle song (i.e., good for hitting the table; good for
embracing and swaying back and forth, etc.) and the results of a recent
survey in the Basque Country that yielded some favorites. |

DISTRIBUTION
The initial plan is to make these available to all NABO member
organizations along the same lines as our annual calendar. Each
booklet will cost $1 and each community purchases however many it
believes it needs.
PROMOTION
The hope is that each community will take an active interest in
promoting the song booklet and organizing events to encourage more
singing.
