Information/Write-up

A musical introduction to the story of The Famous Five. The CD can be used as a teaching aid or by it can be used by choirs and soloists at special events using the backing tracks.

Celebrating The Famous Five
I have been a proud advocate of the story of these five feisty ladies rightly named The Famous Five!

On October 18, 1929 these five women won The Person's Case which declared women to be "persons in the eyes of the law". This made a significant improvement in the status of women, not only in Alberta, but in all of Canada and in every Commonwealth country of the day!!

You can purchase my beautifully recorded CD with my two songs about The Famous Five. The Ballad of The Famous Five is sung in English and in French. The Spirit of The Famous Five is sung in English. There is also a backing track for each of the songs to be used at events by a soloist or a choir.

Turn on my song The Spirit of the Famous Five and scroll through the photos.

These are some of the events I have organized and in which I used my songs to encourage, educated and inspire people to follow in the courageous footsteps of The Famous Five!!

Is there an opportunity in your life to make a difference for the rights of women?

The Famous Five- Their Story Told in Song.
The cost per CD is $15.00 plus $5.00 postage and handling. You can purchase up to 5 copies for the single handling cost of $15.00.
