Who's In the Hallway?

Continuing our journey into Winter Songs. Day 15 takes us into the hallway. Who's in the Hallway? "Masters in the hallway, hear ye news today!"

December 15 - One of my favorites!!

December 15 brings us one of my favorite call and response songs. You can find all kinds of versions of this, from jazz, to gospel to folk. Can you sing it? I'll give the call you shout the response... "Children go where I send thee...

Day 14

December 14 brings us another colorful berry song that can not be confused with yesterdays song. Todays song starts out "The holly bears a berry as white as the milk..." Enjoy.

How did I get behind (again)? Day 12 and 13

Well it seems that I got behind more than I thought. When I went to look at my posts I realized it was the 13th not the 12th! So a little more catching up today. Here are days 12 and 13 of our Songs of the Seasons list. How are you doing? Are you familiar with all the songs being posted? If you have suggestions shoot me an email and let me know your favorite song of the season.

Day 12... "Bring a torch, Jeanette Isabelle. Bring a torch come hurry and run"

Day 13... "The Holly and the Ivy when they were both first grown. Of all the trees that are in the woods the Holly bears the crown"

Day 10 & 11

I have been on the road for a quick trip to Chicago to celebrate the life of my friend Shel Trapp. It was a wonderful celebration of a man who gave so much to the world of organizing.

With that said, It's been a busy two days. Haven't had internet or time to post day 10 and 11. Please enjoy day 10 and 11.

Day 10 - "When Joseph was a Old Man, an old man was he"

Day 11 - "Lully, lully tho little tiny child"

Day 9 - "Deck the Halls with boughs of holly"

Day nine is one of my favorites....Deck the Halls with boughs of holly. The video is one of my favorites as well.

Pete and Woody at Franklin Elementary

Richard Crowson and I have a great time as Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie. We perform as the Big Rock Candy Mountaineers. Singing songs of Pete and Woody we share with students the importance of the FOLK. We sing folk songs, play folk instruments, tell folk tales, demonstrate folk dance and show a little folk art in the form of cartooning. We had a great time at Franklin this week. Give us a call for a show in your school.
