Stephen Foster, Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair

Post by haydenmuhl »

This song is conspicuously absent from Stephen Foster's composer page. I would take care of this one, but I don't have access to the music library until school starts in the fall.

Hi haydenmuhl,

It has now been posted: http://imslp.org/wiki/Jeanie_with_the_L ... ,_Stephen). The Library of Congress' Music for the Nation Collection (http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/mussmhtml/mussmhome.html) contains high quality, black and white scans of many of Foster's songs (and others' arrangements of them) as originally published in the 1850s.

Enjoy,
Cypressdome

You're wonderful. Thank you.

Also good to know about the Library of Congress. I'll probably use that in the future.
