Ani Ma'amin (I Believe)arr. John Leavitt. The
text of this traditional Hebrew song comes from the

victims of the Holocaust, the song offered comfort
and still serves as a beacon of hope for the future
of humankind. This deeply emotional setting may
be performed with piano alone or with optional
orchestration for violin, clarinet, cello and bass.

Cantar!Jay Althouse. Cuban salsa music is
sweeping the country, and Cantar! (which means
"Sing!" in Spanish) is a stylistically authentic salsa
work for choir. The text is a combination of English
and simple, repetitive Spanish phrases, set to a
rhythmically infectious melody. It's a cross-cultural
song for general concerts, especially during
"Music In Our Schools" month. The recorded
accompaniment really sizzles!
