Tumbalalaika—arr. Audrey Snyder. The title
of this Yiddish folk song informs us that a Balalaika
will at least be inferred in the music. This wonderfully
authentic arrangement does just that. It also includes
a clarinet obligato (included in the back of the
octavo) which is a tip of the hat to the Klezmer band.

The Voice That I Hear—Jim Papoulis.
Young people often know how to speak to the heart
of matters more clearly than adults. Here, in the

to evolve. We learn that our own individual voices
are important, make us creative, make us unique,
and deserve to be celebrated. The music is vintage
Papoulis in rhythmic elements and world style, and
is accessible for younger voices.

windy night. Exciting!

Wishing Star—Beth Bolton/

and independence of line that creates the beautiful
quality of this concert piece.
