Brotherhood Quote by Tom Glazer

“I was asked by a group to write a song on the theme of brotherhood. This was before women's liberation, when brotherhood meant men and women both, so I wrote the song. Since I had always been very fond of the Passion Chorale, I wrote words to that great piece.” quote by Tom Glazer — Download Open image
