When the kids come dressed out for The Christmas SOCCER Team sign-ups, they quickly realize they have fouled out! This SOCCER stands for the Society Of Christmas Carolers Emergency Rescue, a team of senior singers who strive to save Christmas carols from extinction. Being good sports, the kids agree to share their songs about Jesus' birth and learn some of the SOCCER team's carols. This musical fusion finds the kids falling into the adult's southern gospel, black gospel and swing arrangements and the SOCCER team adopting the hip-hop, rap and bluegrass styles of the kids' music! The final score is a tie when the kids realize worshipping Christ is the goal of all Christmas music and become starters on The Christmas SOCCER Team to keep the carols of our faith alive and kickin'! Ages: 2nd - 8th Grades.

But there's no redesigning history in this musical as kids learn about the plagues, the Passover, the Exodus and the Ten Commandments through clever lyrics and memorable music. As in his own life, the emphasis of this musical is not on Moses, but the God of Moses -- the Great I AM! Ages: 1st - 8th Grades.

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
