This Funk tune, made popular by Justin Timberlake and featured in the movie Trolls has a wonderful text about the freedom and happiness we feel when we move to the music. The limited range part for the boys sets them up for success and funky groove and hand claps lets your audience know that when we are singing we can't stop the feeling of love and happiness.

Promoting positive body image in the lyric, with a catchy melody and an infectious grove, this pop tune definitely has a bit of a '50s and '60s doo-wop feel that makes it refreshing. With its throwback soul beat, its body-positive message couched in a cute musical metaphor, and its dance-filled, candy-colored video, it's become a straight-up pop phenomenon loved by today's pop culture. A very playable arrangement with a fresh touch! (1:45).

Composer Bud Woodruff continues to present compositions that students will love to perform and will learn from playing. The title, Dorian's Barn has a unique double meaning in that it is dedicated to a man named Dorian and it is in the Dorian mode. The addition of the word 'barn' in the title also adds to the music a fun country backwoods aesthetic.

I had promised a piece for my valued friend, Dorian Barnes, in exchange for some repair work he performed on my violin at an inconvenient time for him. He is a very gifted luthier, which is a very ancient craft, and in addition to carving modern instruments, he has also carved more archaic stringed instrument. So I wanted to write a piece that captured the gist of what those original instruments might have performed.

The title Dorian's Barn is a twist on his name (Dorian Barnes), but also gave a good bit of inspiration to the piece, too. There are many ancient, deserted, old barns where I live, and they are all wonderfully made, but there is no telling what one might find inside of one of them. There is a real sense of mystery one feels when approaching one for the first time, and I wanted to capture that feeling in the music, too. It turns out that there was an old barn on the land where Dorian grew up, and that image has really stuck in his mind, too.

As a further twist on Dorian's name, the piece is primarily in the E-Dorian mode.

ISBN 9781491161203. UPC: 680160919789. Key: Bb major. English. Siegfried Sasson.

Everyone suddenly burst out singing; And I was filled with such delight As prisoned birds must find in freedom... These opening lines to Everyone Sang by the British war poet Siegfried Sassoon feel as relevant today as they did when the poem was first published in 1919. It was after the end of World War I and these words capture so much of the collective exhilaration, relief, and pure joy about the Great War finally coming to an end. And yet Sassoon himself felt none of that when he wrote this poem. In his own words, he was feeling dull-minded and depressed. Perhaps his time in the trenches was still too recent. One of the reasons the creative arts are so powerful is that a poet like Sassoon (or a painter like Van Gogh or a composer like Mahler) can take their own feelings of deep sadness or pain and transform them into something beautiful, even uplifting. Everyone Sang is a celebration of the promise that things can get better, that there are things worth looking forward to.   The poem itself has so much rhythm and musicality. The appearance of suddenly in the first line of each verse gives those verses a rush of energy. Attention to the crescendo in measure 7, and again in measure 37, from mf to f will help the listener experience that rush. There are expressive opportunities with so many of the poet's bold choices of action words - burst, winging, and shaken. Then there's alliteration - a poetic device that can be overdone, but Sassoon strikes a wonderful balance. Suddenly/singing (measures 6-7 and 10-11) Find/freedom (measure 21-22) Winging/wildly (measure 23) Setting/sun (measures 47-49) Was/wordless (measures 65-75) Give these alliterations just a hint of emphasis (without overdoing) to bring out the natural rhythm of the text.   And just as O is set apart in the poem by punctuation, I wanted the musical setting - in measure 57 - to honor that feeling of wonder - ...O, but Everyone Was a bird; and the song was wordless; the singing will Never be done. Friends, there is so much good ahead, so much to be excited about. May the singing never be done.

Illu strated by Nancy Sosna Bohm   Music and art can help us feel and express deep emotions. We can be happy or sad, but that is only the beginning. This beautiful book explores the powerful link between art, music, and emotion, and is ideal for deepening Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and building a fuller emotional vocabulary. Built on the principles of SEL, each page of The ABCs of My Feelings and Music offers an emotion word in a piece of colorful artwork, one for each letter of the alphabet. Below each illustration are three classical music suggestions to listen to while observing the art. Use the provided questions and a link to playlists to help unpack what children are seeing and feeling. The questions can also jumpstart meaningful discussions about how art and music can affect and help us express our emotions. This book is for children as well as teachers, parents, social workers, counselors, music therapists—anyone who works with children and understands the power of art and music. We hope this book helps you and your children/students expand their emotional vocabulary, have meaningful discussions about emotions, and think more deeply about how music and art makes us feel! Scott N. Edgar is Associate Professor of Music, Music Education Chair, and Director of Bands at Lake Forest College (Lake Forest, Illinois). Dr. Edgar is the author of Music Education and Social Emotional Learning: The Heart of Teaching Music and is an internationally sought-after clinician on Social Emotional Learning.

Every year, Christmas is new—new tour, new music, a new feeling of expectation of joy and a warmth special for Christmas. Add a dose of tradition and it becomes a new Christmas carol. The World for Christmas contains a balanced mix of uptempo and contemplative music for the Christmas season that will easily set your desired Christmas atmosphere. Many of the songs contain a bit of both, like Mel Torme’s “The Christmas Song” and the beautiful “Santa Baby.” “Staffan Stalledräng” takes a leaping pace, and Joni Mitchell's “River” perfectly depicts that feeling when the joy of Yuletide contrasts with how to feel. The song “Gläns Över Sjö Och Strand” is unexpectedly inspired by the pianist Lennart Simonsson. We have been working with good friends on some arrangements and audio mixes. Mikael and Göran have come up with new harmonic colors for the arrangements “Santa Baby” and “Julfemman.” Tony from Take 6 has beautifully mixed Fredrik’s arrangement of “Sleigh Ride.” Ilkka, who works with Finnish colleagues in Rajaton, has spread a light from the east. Now a thousand Christmas lights are lit. Erik and Luca from the Italian Cluster have also lent us their talent and taste in “Let It Snow,” The artist, Hans Lif, was tasked with making cookie cutters for the nice gingerbread cookies on the album cover. We sincerely hope that our children will get The World for Christmas. The blue green forever turning world. Nothingmore, nothing less.  .
