Sing along…

This is the best recording I have found so far. Listen to their consonants, energy in tone, and the phrasing and shaping.  It’s not choppy, it’s quite fluid!  It’s a great example of good style & technique for this song.

That’s a Wrap!

If everyone can listen and feel confident with these songs, we can drive right into Pasko Na Naman, Ring Out and the Swedish Folk Songs next Tuesday! Thank you all!!
