"Canta conmigo" Lyrics and Video Link

Hi Everyone!

I miss making music with you and am working out the best way to record music at home.  In the mean time, here are the lyrics to "Canta conmigo."  We're singing it in the style of Elizabeth Mitchell and Suni Paz.  Here's a link to help you sing along and practice your pronunciation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqjuGT_xfDQ.

I hope to sing it in a key that's slightly higher and better suited for your ranges. 
Please be well and know that I'm thinking about your and your families!
-Ms. K.

The Cat Came Back Lyrics

The Birch Tree

Hi Chorus Singers!

I'm sorry to miss you during this break from school!  If you're looking for something else to work on, I would love it if you took a few minutes here and there to review a few of the pieces we're planning to perform in the spring.  

Note that for "The Birch Tree" each new group enters one measure after the previous group.  Look for the "1", "2", and "3" in the sheet music.  Here's a link to me singing a video:  THE BIRCH TREE PRACTICE VIDEO

I was racing to get some of these pieces recorded before the end of the day last Friday, so I'm sorry if it's not my best recording!

Thanks and be well!

Ms. Kasab

Here's a new round for you to work on, as well!

Lyrics:

Good night,
Slumber sound.
In peace profound
Till morning’s light.

Promised Land

Here's a video for "Promised Land" that shows the two parts.  I'll post the lyrics soon!
