been collecting submissions for Voices of the Star, Volume 2 for some time now,
and while not necessarily a War Song Book, it is a collection of works by,
for, or about Ansteorra(ns). Volume 1 can be downloaded in PDF format at <a
href="http://bard.ansteorra.org/files.html">http://bard.ansteorra.org/files.html</a>.
Her Excellency Bonwicke, Baroness Oriana, agreed some time ago to Illuminate
the cover for Volume 2. Master Bran Trefonnen provided the cover art for
Volume 1. If you would like to combine efforts in this regard, I would
welcome the collaboration.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<br>
well... I hadn't thought so far ahead as to putting it online and so forth.
That opens a whole new scope for getting it out there and I'm sure that I
will probably end up putting it online so that it can be viewed and printed and
learned from. <br>
Thank you for volunteering I'll need all the help i can get! <br>
As far as music and notes and chords - I don't have the music experience to
come up with those on my own. If you have them for the piece however I would be
happy to put them into the book with it! <br>
As far as bringing in other pieces not written by you. I don't want to put
anything in this that the original writer doesn't want there. I also want these
things to be either by an Ansteorrian or about Ansteorra. If you find a song
that you think would really inspire an Ansteorrian that works too. That
being said - recruit. If you can somehow trace the song back to its writer or
writers and can find me a way to contact them or help me find a way to contact
them - I would be more then happy to beg for the privilege of being able to
print the songs. <br>
And of course these can be old songs! bring them on! Lets give them new voices
to sing them and make sure they get printed once again! <br>
Yours, <br>
Adelina <br>

planning a nice illuminated edition, but have you thought about producing
something that might be more useful to musicians, perhaps something with chords
and/or tablature? That may be far beyond the scope of your vision but speaking
as a guitarist who has yet to train himself to read music, that may prove
useful to some. Just a thought. :^) </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
