    There are some days that the chorus just gets me, and today those kids got me good. This is one of the most beautiful accomplishments in PS22 Chorus history -- from the genuine heartfelt performance of the kids, to the precision of harmonies, to Brielle's beautiful soloing. Today I am an extremely proud music teacher.....
    The song is "I'll Stand By You," originally by The Pretenders, and written by Chrissy Hynde, Tom Kelly & Billy Steinberg. I'm not sure it's ever been more potent than it is as presented here. The entire fifth grade will be singing this at PS22's graduation which comes in only a couple of weeks. I predict not a dry eye....
    Super huge congrats to the kids, who earned the Webby Award for Artist of the Year in 2010, joining the ranks of will.i.am and The Beastie Boys as recipients for this honor! The kids will be receiving their award on June 14th. Stay tuned for more on that!

    My mother was around and much younger for the original version and after watching and hearing that performance...we're having a very tough day family-wise and I could see she was holding back tears. She said that far far better than Christy Hynde's original. I'm not sure there's a bigger compliment.
