Song a Day Meme: Day 26

[willowisp]

In elementary school music we learned to play, on soprano recorder, all of the songs we sang in class. I don't believe any of my Facebook friends date back to my elementary school days, but if any do, they may remember the Native Canadian traditional song "Land of the Silver Birch". I still do.
