The kind of September, when grass was green and grain was yellow...
Here we are again...and a happy September to you, with the start of a new school year, new beginnings, apple season, the autumnal equinox...Here is a piece for you to sing, play along with, or share with your class, friends, family and colleagues. This song is from the 1960 Musical "The Fantasticks" which was in production off-Broadway for 42 years, as well as in many other theaters throughout the years. Lyrics by Tom Jones and music by Harvey Schmidt, this piece can bring many feelings to the surface. Memories, wishes, sweet and sad, dreamy, hopeful, soulful...how does it feel for you? Here are some beautiful renditions. Enjoy them. Join in, ...'and follow'......
