I've always loved to sing. I come from a long line of people who love to sing. That may be a bit of an exaggeration; however, I know that music was important for both of my grandmothers. I remember sitting at my Mammaw Strader's feet as she played the hymns she loved. Those moments were priceless.
In my last blog, I spoke of Anna Graceman and her big voice. I thnk I failed to mention that she WRITES her original stuff. Impressive. But here is a group of kids that is impressively talented as well. To me, they are a testimony of why music MUST be in our school programs. The kids have not only covered Tori Amos, they've MET her. I'll be so bold as to say that sometimes I like their covers better than the original! Mr. B, their teacher, has an amazing way of connecting the children to music, giving them a voice in the process.
PS22 chorus has gone viral at my house. And if you don't like them, even just a little bit, check your wallet. You may be a card-carrying nazi.
