Who are the very best advocates for your school's music programs? The kids! Advocacy is a continuous process of diligent education to bring awareness about the benefits of music learning to the general public. And, kids can expertly share the joy of music making and learning in a variety of different ways. The authors worked together to develop a musical revue about the wonder of music. Each of the seven original songs can be performed together as a complete program, or they can be sung in other contexts as well. The 30-minute revue includes piano/vocal arrangements with choreography, short narrations for up to 65 speaking parts and digital access to student PDFs. To perform with recordings, the Performance Kit includes the Teacher Edition and digital access to student PDFs and performance/accompaniment audio recordings. Songs include: Music Is an Everyday Thing, Many Things I Learned I Learned Through Music, Playing Music Is Hard Work, A Song in My Heart, Working Together, If I Didn't Have Music, Our Place in the Choir. In addition to a musical revue, the second half of the book is focused on strategies, ideas and conversations about the importance of music study in children's and adolescents' lives. There are even writing and advocacy activities to engage students in the promotion of the critical role that music plays in their lives. The ten chapters concentrate on attributes of music education and how children benefit from music study highlighted in the Broader Minded Campaign put forth by the National Association for Music Education (NAfME): Decision Making, Grit, Multiple Ways of Knowing, Creativity, Collaboration, Communication, Critical Thinking, Emotional Awareness, Reflective Learning, and Process Orientation. Suggested for grades 2-6.

On the island of Elba, off the coast of Italy, I composed this work as the sun was rising over the ocean in the mornings and gently sifting through the clouds against the lingering fog. As the piece developed, it took on a shape of its own and gradually became centered around diminished chords and the interval of a tri-tone (diminished 5th). I love these chords for their angst and for their sadness, but also for their flexibility. My piece is very textural in nature; and yes, it does have a melody of sorts, and yet, this melody comes and goes, and is never quite grasped until the end. Portions of it are repeated and spun out creating layers of sound without the heaviness of form. It is indeed a depiction of mist, where one minute you see things and the next they are gone. As you move through the piece, you find that the trumpet is also an antagonist, creeping in with a haunting cry; a reminder of things unsettled. Throughout the piece, we are quietly searching. We search for a tonal center for stability, and also for a melody that will make us feel fulfilled. Once found, we hold them for an instant, and then like the clouds and like life itself, they are gone. We are warmed by their presence and saddened by their loss. I hope that you will reflect upon your own memories of life's quiet moments as we enjoy the world premiere of this new work together. Mist is not a piece to be analyzed, but rather a piece to be experienced and absorbed. As you listen, release your mind, embrace your emotions, close your eyes, and allow the mist to creep in.

Music is one of the most important elements of a preschoolers' development and it is the perfect way to introduce spiritual concepts to this age child. What they hide in their hearts from the ages of three to five will stay with them for a lifetime. Having worked together for years as writers editors and directors of children's music Pamela Vandewalker and Cherry Garasi felt the need for quality age appropriate musical presentations for preschoolers. Live LOVE! is a result of that idea and it presents one of the strongest spiritual concepts anyone can ever learn. This musical presentation outlines the idea that truly love is a verb. By teaching children that we show love to others in the way we live and the things we do and say we are pointing them toward a relationship with God through His son Jesus - the One who teaches us to love one another. Because the subject matter of this musical is love this music program can be used at any time of year but would be especially suited for a February (or Valentine's) performance. Suggestions for sharing this musical in your church school or community are included in this book. Our prayer is that as you teach Live LOVE! you and your children will have a happy experience with music making. But more importantly we hope the ideas of God loving us and the importance of loving each other will be instilled in the hearts and minds of your preschoolers. Video Blogs Now Available! View here .

Repe rtoire of romantic choral music worth discovering: In his unaccompanied choral songs the expressive melodies of the song composer Schumann combine with a harmonically rich, sometimes even experimental composition. Though in current concert repertoire they are far less often performed than, for example, comparable works by Mendelssohn or Brahms, they are unjustly underestimated. Schumann himself wrote that he had composed the choral songs with true passion, in the belief that things like this did not yet exist. Schumann composed most of the choral songs, which are mainly homophonic, in 1849 for the Verein fur Chorgesang founded by him and the Leipzig Liederkranz. The volume brings together choral settings which where previously only available by Carus in separate editions, plus the choral song Glockenturmers Tochterlein which only exists in manuscript.
