Every time you sing the 23 original songs on this CD the heroic story of Moses is told again! These are not nursery songs or old classics like Deep and Wide. They are brand new songs that are content-loaded! Based on the Bible, Exodus chapters 1 through 15, themes include Pharaoh, the Hebrew midwives, Moses sister Miriam, and his mother, Jochebed. In 55 minutes of action-packed singing, follow Moses' steps as he is educated in Pharaoh's palace and has to flee to Midian after slaying an Egyptian. There he sees the burning bush and God charges him to speak to Pharaoh. The all-sufficient God helps the Israelites escape with a mighty hand. Learn about the parting of the Red Sea, the defeat of Pharaoh's army and the long awaited feast! Music genres on this CD range from Tchaikovsky's classic March � to the jazzy When the Saints go Marching In. 55 minutes of songs, and Moses only got to the Red Sea! (Of course there is a volume 2.) The album was on the Grammy ballot in 2004 for Best Children s Album of the Year. Bible StorySongs' slogan is "Learning by Singing". This format is an effort to relieve the Sunday school doldrums many children experience. This discovery, that singing can be the most effective way to learn, was the motivation to begin Bible StorySongs. Paula King and Catherine Walker, put Bible verses, facts, lists, stories (anything they wanted kids to remember) to favorite familiar tunes in the public domain. Employing public domain tunes which uniquely match the feeling of the Bible stories makes many of the new songs quite easy to learn. The flow and style of the excellent music assists in the writing of the lyrics, often taken directly from Bible verses. This simple formula works! The hundreds of kids they taught in summer Bible Camps can quickly answer Biblical questions by singing snippets of songs, and still remember them today as adults. This time-tested positive result prompted Mrs. King and Mrs. Walker to professionally record and publish these songs. The compound word StorySongs in the company name not a typo. The stories are in the songs - they are "storysongs"! This is a delightful and effective way for even Biblically challenged baby boomer's to join their children and grandchildren in learning the stories in the Bible. Time for today's working parents is at a premium. Playing Bible StorySongs cd's in the car on the way to school or soccer is prime time to redeem! Many grateful parents have happily informed us that they are learning as much about the Bible as their children! Research has shown that using more senses in learning results in better understanding, and the longer memory retention. Bible StorySongs are: magnificently melodious (musical), rapturously rhythmic (kinetic), pleasantly poetic (verbal), magnetizing metric (mathematical), eruditely elevating (cognitive) and so sweet to sing (tasty!). Bible StorySong singing incorporates many of the senses and thereby reinforces the learning process! Even parents of learning disabled children have told us they have discovered their kids singing these songs while at play. Singing accommodates varied learning styles and abilities. The Bible StorySongs singers are children from the Dallas/Fort Worth area ranging from age 6 to college age, who grew up singing these songs. The albums simply use a guitar and piano for most of the instrumentation, to encourage listeners to sing Bible StorySongs with the family around the piano at home! Audio samples and Sheet Music e-books are available at their website: www.biblestorysongs.com.
