Got Blues? – Micah Kids Choir
Fun and original songs written by Lisa Silver, Teri Simon and friends for children’s choirs and family services to brighten the celebrations of the Jewish year, released in 2003. The music has stayed as an integral part of Congregation Micah’s holiday celebrations for adults and children and as regular parts of children’s services. Many of the children’s voices on this CD are now adults – some with children of their own. At the time these songs were recorded, the Kids Choir members were between the ages of 3-10. Enjoy the Bonus Track as Lisa and some of Nashville’s professional studio musicians and sound engineers navigate working with these recording divas.
Writing for children is a complex process. These selections don’t make the mistake of speaking down to children. Musically they are sometimes more complex. Lyrically they embrace complex thoughts in simple ways that embrace a child’s view with humor, spirited and even dance-able rhythms. Discover part of what members call, “The Magic of Micah” in the Kids Choir.
From the links below, you can listen to a snippet of the song or purchase an mp3. Lisa also is offering the music ripped “From the Songbook”. The link will connect you directly with Lisa. There she can arrange to create handwritten sheet music for you. In it you will find not only the music notes and words, but also her directional notes as the choir director. Ripped from the songbook are both completely usable as sheet music or framable as art.
