Re: Owl songs / Birdsong
Fri, March 14, 2008 - 10:32 PMThe French round "Le coucou"--the cuckoo answers the owl:
Dans la forêt lointaine,
On entend le coucou.
Du haut de son grand chêne
Il répond au hibou:
"Coucou, coucou..."
tr:
In the distant forest
you can hear the cuckoo.
From the top of his tall oak
he answers the owl:
"Cuckoo, cuckoo..."

Fri, March 14, 2008 - 10:49 PMSince you're asking us, I'm assuming that either you don't know about or haven't checked the Digital Tradition folksong database at mudcat.org, where you can do subject searches.
_Sing Out!_ magazine has an online index of all the sheet music they've ever published. I don't think you can do a subject search there, per se... I have dialup and not much memory, so it's too slow a process for my taste, and so I'm not very familiar with it. But you might have either more patience or more broadband capacity than I... -
