    Recorded by Josh Groban, this inspirational song reminds us of the importance of giving in life and for all we have to be thankful. The moving arrangement is beautifully orchestrated, adding to the rich vocal harmonies that set the exquisite melody and text. Perfect for every choir any time of year, including Christmas.
    Available for SATB, SAB, 2-Part, SSA and TTB, with Digital and Print Orchestration and Studio Trax CD.

    Heard this beautiful piece for the first time in our Adult Choir practice tonight. Feeling truly thankful to have survived Hurricane Irma.

    Somedays we forget
    To look around us
    Somedays we can't see
    The joy that surrounds us
    So caught up inside ourselves
    We take when we should give.
    So for tonight we pray for
    What we know can be.
    And on this day we hope for
    What we still can't see.
    It's up to us to be the change
    And even though we all can still do more
    There's so much to be thankful for.
    Look beyond ourselves
    There's so much sorrow
    It's way too late to say
    I'll cry tomorrow
    Each of us must find our truth
    It's so long overdue
    So for tonight we pray for
    What we know can be
    And every day we hope for
    What we still can't see
    It's up to us to be the change
    And even though we all can still do more
    There's so much to be thankful for.
    Even with our differences
    There is a place we're all connected
    Each of us can find each other's light
    So for tonight we pray for
    What we know can be
    And on this day we hope for
    What we still can't see
    It's up to us to be the change
    And even though this world needs so much more
    There's so much to be thankful for

    Tonight*, for the first time in 20 months and 20 days, our choir (Timmins Concert Singers) will be having a live concert. With the new COVID rules if we stand 2 metres away from each other we don't wear the mask while singing. JOY. This is one of the songs we sing and it sure has a lot of different meanings.

    Hi I'm a newbie in Choir and my teacher is having the class sing this! I'm an alto and I can't hit the notes! What do I do? Can someone give me some tips? also I lose my place and tune halfway through rehearsing songs... what can I do to not let myself be distracted by the people surrounding me?

    • @vanessajamille8600
      @vanessajamille8600 Před 4 lety +2

      If your choir director does not have a segment in your choir rehearsal/class time called "sectionals" - - get together with the other people in your voice section after school and have your own sectional/practice where you focus on and LEARN just your part! Then, when you are back in choir again, you won't follow the singers in the other voice sections.
      Also try sitting toward the inside of your section so that you are surrounded by people who are singing the same thing that you are supposed to be singing.
      Another thing to try that will make YOU a "leader" in your section is taking time on your own, in a quiet place, with your MUSIC (not just the words to the song) and sing the song IN YOUR HEAD - - not out loud with your voice, but cause/force your brain to generate the sound of YOUR VOCAL LINE - - not just the melody of the song (which is often in the soprano's part - - but not always). Doing this is what is referred to as "audiation". Audiation is the action of the brain "remembering" for itself, what something sounds like. The funny thing about it though, is that nobody outside of you can hear a thing, but your brain is "hearing" the music just as if it was coming from outside of you by other people singing/playing the music, you singing with your own voice or as if you were listening to the music with earbuds in your ears. The tricky part about this though is that your brain is going to "remember"/play back the sound the way it was learned. If you're unsure of your notes or you learned the "wrong" notes, that's what your brain is going to audiate.
      You need to have your music with you so that you can READ IT and follow along with it to match what you are audiating with the way the music is printed. That way, when you are back in your choir, you can use the music to SYNC with your brain's music so that you'll not get led off of your part by somebody else's vocal part.
      This may sound strange to you. But it's the ability to do things like this, in this way, which causes MUSIC STUDENTS to have BETTER, SMARTER BRAINS!
