camino songs

[Bob Spenger]

Dear groups,

At dinner, in Ostabat, after my first day on this year's pilgrimage, I
was privileged to be introduced  to the song, "Chant des Pèlerins de
Compostelle." The guests at the dinner sang it that night and one of
them gave me a copy of the words and music torn from her book. I brought
it to the S.F. meeting and we sang it there, but I was reluctant to scan
it and send it out to the groups, since I was concerned about copy write
violation. I have been trying to find out the ISBN of the song book in
order to pass it along. However, I have just heard from Michel Besson,
who sent me the URL of a site that has already posted the song on the
net:

It is the second of the two songs on the web site and Michel tells me
that it is sung in Conques when they have the little ceremony at night
for the departing pilgrims of the next day.

regards,

Bob Spenger
