Nonsense syllables, notated body percussion and a jovial piano part all come together to make this silly song that is said to be “the very best medicine” for an achy heart. You can't help but smile listening to (or singing) this lighthearted piece, perfect for middle school voices.
Community … use singing to bring people together once again in your neighborhood, home, church, camp, school, club or activity. Plan now to include some audience participation at a concert or other public event. Throw in a song or two at the beginning of a meeting to melt the ice and get communication going. Restore the fun of camp singing next time you gather a group around the fire. Get out the guitar, sit down at the piano, tune up the Autoharp, add a bass, drums, or any other instruments you can lay your hands on, and have a sing-a-long.
Developed in association with the Music Educators National Conference (MENC) and other music organizations, this publication contains over 40 songs which represent America's vast and varied music heritage, along with an introduction by America's own Pete Seeger. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of these editions will benefit the national MENC campaign to “Get America Singing … Again!”
