Dear Elementary Music Teacher,This has been another exciting year of growth and change at Alfred. I consider both of those good things! I remember how excited I was as a teacher on my first day of school: new music, new students, new teachers. I couldn’t wait to see it all come together, to put everything in place, to develop new relationships and discover new talents.

And that’s how I feel as we present our new release to you each year. The variety of music is always amazing to me. We are so lucky to have such a creative team of composers, arrangers, and editors. I’m pleased to introduce you to our new Alfred Pop & Lawson-Gould Choral Editor, Michael Spresser, who joined our team last spring. Michael’s varied background in both music education and publishing makes him a wonderful addition to our editorial team.

Enjoy your new year of growth and change,

Sally K. Albrecht | Director of School Choral and Classroom Publications

This captivating mini-musical will capture your young performers’ imaginations, as a bevy of birds is given the task of collecting seeds before Fuego, the Mexican god of fire,

Features several Spanish words and short phrases. Approx. 20 minutes.
