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!

You'll recognize the iconic Surfaris drum solo right from the start! This fun in the sun, ultimate surf rock song is newly set with beach party lyrics plus a few ba-da-ba vocables. The twelve-bar blues form is remarkably easy to learn, so you'll have plenty of time to dive into the notated choreography, add some themed costumes, or decorate the stage with colorful props. Not sure who's gonna love it more, the kids or the parents! Hahahaha, wipe out!

From a favorite childhood game comes a lesson about solving conflicts cooperatively, rather than competitively. A fun ostinato section near the end gets your kids singing three independent vocal lines in a snap. The rock 'n' roll feel is sure to be a hit with younger groups! Staging suggestions available on Alfred's Movin' DVD.

There is a word in South Africa, Ubuntu, which recognizes that we are better as individuals and entire communities when we root ourselves in relationships. When we care for each other and embrace our essential unity, humanity thrives. This very special original song invites singers and audience members to live Ubuntu, connected as one global family. Two-part singers will quickly learn the naturally syncopated hook, echo phrases, and no fuss harmony. A small drum circle, an opening narrator, a few rap soloists, and some resonant descant voices guarantee an impressive performance. This is the type of piece you'd hear at convention, hope your kids can handle, and then rejoice when you realize they can!

It's a creative day of play as kids imagine themselves pirates on a grand outdoor adventure. Contemporary poet Nanci Milam pens a colorful course and a compelling cast of characters, with a detailed account of their quest. Composer Penny Rodriguez adds a jaunty compound meter, cheerful minor key, and a few sudden dynamic changes to enhance the drama and capture the spirit. A perfect pairing of music and lyrics, a treasure for younger singers! This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

After weeks of waiting, it's finally time to open those holiday gifts. As the kids gleefully tear into their presents, wrapping paper, ribbons, tags, and bags go flying---it's a gift wrap riot! This rockin' hand jive is a total blast. The vocal parts pretty much teach themselves, so there's plenty of time to add the familiar hand motions or learn Andy's full choreography (printed in the score and available as a free ChoreoTrax video online). If holiday novelty numbers have become a tradition at your school, you won't want to miss this one!
