The Second Graders at Isabelle's school performed a few songs for the parents the other day. I can only say that if the piece originally did not have words it would probably be best if it was kept that way. I hate to say that they did not sound good, nor could you understand what the kids were singing.
Isabelle loves to sing but this was not her best performance, and I really think the music selection and choices had a lot to do with that. If the music teacher had picked other pieces to perform it might have been different, but I'm just not sure. Of course they did not sing any holiday music for fear of offending someone, but still it was just not a good performance. I feel bad for the students, because they had to learn words to pieces that should not have words put to them.
If you want to do a "patriotic" concert then pick songs that have words already made for them and sing those not some made up pieces that sound horrible with words. I guess the only good thing that came from this performance was that Isabelle had fun. I guess that is all I can ask for.
