Songs of the 1920s
Songs to sing here, composed (or first published) in that decade, as their sources date them. 43 pieces.
the songs below, one after another,
One press of Sing plays the songs below, one after another, on this device (42 min) and stops after the last: the piano and the words come from the score, so a key change or a slower tempo changes no sound file.
The microphone is asked for only when you press its button. What it hears is measured and scored on this device and never leaves it; nothing is kept unless you record and save the file yourself. What is kept, and where.
