Flash! Bam! Alakazam! Vocal jazzers will love the fall-offs, slides, tight harmonies, and rapid fire triplets in Kirby's arrangement of this Great American Songbook standard. Two brief notated solos sound improvised over the hip changes at the turnaround. Recommended listening: study the style with the 1950 recording by Nat King Cole.

The Four Aces hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 with this ballad from the movie of the same name. Originally an instrumental-only title song, lyrics were added to make it Best Original Song eligible, a category that it won in 1955. Mark Hayes once again gives us an arrangement that is musically satisfying and beautifully expressive.

A folk-infused ballad celebrating the miracle of Hanukkah. Originally recorded by 90s pop sensation Lisa Loeb, this reflective change-of-pace choral features a rhythmic yet mellow accompaniment and straightforward but expressive vocal parts. Whether you perform with the guitar-inspired piano part, the optional SoundTrax CD, or a folk ensemble of your own, this is truly a special touch for holiday concerts.Because of changes in our school's schedule and the taking away of the music requirement in 7th and 8th grade, our choir numbers have dropped significantly. Searching for music that has educational value and that the choir will sound good on (we know that's important for the parents and faculty) I came across Light arranged by Andy Beck. This quickly became a favorite of my choir! The kids are excited to rehearse it every day and the sound they are achieving fits the folk-like feel of the piece. We are using the 2-Part version. Being 7th and 8th graders, of my nine boys, three are unchanged voices (singing alto as written) and my other six are in varying stages of voice change. Those six are bouncing back and forth between alto and soprano parts, singing them down an octave. Thank you for providing a great piece for the holiday season!Matt AlbrechtChoir DirectorCopley-Fairlawn Middle School
