more angels

winter concert at davis waldorf




Winter break for Davis Waldorf was heralded by a beautiful evening of seasonal songs, lively dancing, string ensembles, and concert band performances. Students of grades two through eight proudly gave their all in bringing holiday cheer to the DWS community.

My seventh grade students had been practicing a song and dance number that I had composed for the past three weeks. Drawing from their varied talents and strengths - two on percussion, a pianist, two guitarists, vocalists, and dancers (a special thanks to my daughter who choreographed their dance), the students came together to create a very special offering.

Here are the lyrics:




Winter light aglow


whisper of falling snow


Lonely star on high


A silent holy night



Holly and mistletoe


Wreaths on every door


Bells rign in the season


Apples and cinnamon



Friends and family


Are all the gifts I need


Never mind the tinsel


Or stockings on the mantle



In this winter holiday


I sing to heaven and pray


Climb down


Ye angels


Bring peace



Climb down


Ye angels


Bring peace



Climb down


Ye angels






Have a blessed holiday season!

Rick
