@tracygeri It is on a CD SLOvenian and CROatian Polkas & Waltzes. The Slovenian music is by The Bill Bevec Orchestra and the Croatian by The Polka Quads. The Polka Quads did The Waltz of the Wind.

Nice narration of the Slovenefest 2008, Can me tell me the artist of the last song on your presentation, the song I believe is entitled "Waltz of the Wind"
Thanks

There was no "pathetic Ilyric movement" (whatever that means). The founders did not want to imply any pan-Slavic ambitions; they were organizing for the Slovenes in the USA. The founders of what would eventually become SNPJ had been members of Czech or Bohemian societies prior to organizing the SNPJ - they learned the business of managing a fraternal society hands-on. They decided to use Jednota because the other societies used it. It became a word accepted in the Slovenian-American lexicon.

LODGE 449! represent from Chicago!

But why? What was the reason, was that some kind of pathetic Ilyric movement even in USA?
-
Can you please post the song list for this video? I'd love to get some of the music on disk.

You are correct - the founders chose that word on purpose back in 1904.
