Keep This Song In Your Heart

For the choir conductor who absolutely adores their 3-part mixed choir, here is an end of year wish *to* and *for* your SAB singers. It is a song about them moving on, but also reminding your students and singers that your school will always be a welcoming place to them. And that should they continue to foster their love of music, they can always travel back there in spirit. The verses of the song portray the school year being over empty choir folders, empty hallways, empty lockers. However, the verses conclude with the idea that while these physical representations of their education have become devoid of materials, they will carry the music with them in their hearts and minds. The title "Keep This Song In Your Heart" seems to request the singer to keep this specific composition near and dear to them. However, at the end of the song I make it clear that all that matters that the students carry the love of all music with them into the future, long after they have left your classroom. "Should this song not suffice Then a different one will do. For all I really want Is the love of music For you"
