I'm an Elementary music teacher at a Title 1 school. Our kids suffer through a lot of pains in their lives, and the last few weeks have been especially hard. I had a class this week where things just weren't happening because of the stresses in their home lives lately, so I said "Guys, let's just stop. I think we should just sit and listen for a bit...." and I played this clip, and I wish I recorded the smiles. Thank you for this beautiful gift. It made their lives so much better for those 2 and a half minutes.
Made my day hearing about this!
Hey Christian, thank you so much for sharing such touching story. Your comment made my day 🙏🏻 May God bless these kids and your precious work 🙏🏻
What a wonderful teacher, sensitive to their needs. My daughter is a substitute teacher and she does the same thing.
Beautiful. It will be a musical interlude that they will remember their entire lives.
Such a beautiful story! Thanks for sharing
00:56 to 01:00 it's amazing how a single note can have so many chords 😆
This guy is really awesome, isn't he?
Yes, Fantastic reharmonization.
