Michelle My Bell Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 My daughter wants to play this for our TOG Year 4, Unit 1 Unit Celebration and we can only find it for close to $15.00 online. I really don't want to pay that, or anything if I can help it! :tongue_smilie: She really likes the version by John Jacobson. If you know of a piano book that has it, you have one you are willing to give away or sell or you know somewhere online where she can get her hands on a copy, PLEASE help me. Thanks!

Jean in Newcastle Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Have you checked at your library? When I did a search in our library catalog, I found a music book "Barbershops, Bullets and Ballads", that supposedly has the music in it.

Has she ever heard it played properly? I would never want to play it for a celebration. Perhaps the Belgian national anthem, but not Flander's Fields. It is so incredibly, horribly sad.

CoastalGal Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I don't pretend to know anything about sheet music...:tongue_smilie: But I found it at sheetmusicplus.com for $1.53 HTH...I think "In Flanders Fields" is beautiful...what a tribute to the memory of those who served.

A unit celebration in TOG is a gathering where users of TOG exhibit what they have learned during the unit; they also may do some recitation, interpretation, music etc; there is often food involved as well. It's not necessarily a party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we are not celebrating the fact that so many have died in wars, we are simply coming together at the end of a unit to have a completion party. TOG calls it a unit celebration. We have been focusing on WWI during this unit and my daughter is very moved by what she has learned about and wanted to play this song on the piano while singing it. She has written a small book of sorts about WWI and this poem is included in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I know, but they make you purchase a minimum of 6 and then charge you shipping and handling on top of that. It is a tad bit frustrating.
