About This:

In 1990, Nick Page went from being a full time music teacher to being a song leader, composer, and author. His teaching is now targeted at the teachers themselves. He believes that every child needs music and singing in their lives. His workshops show teachers how simple music activities can enhance attention spans, listening skills, emotional well being, community skills, discipline, and cultural awareness. Many of Nick's choral publications were commissioned by children's choral groups throughout North America. He is currently working on a songbook with songs of many cultures, complete with teacher-friendly stories and teaching strategies for each song.

Nick Page has led sings across North America and Europe and everywhere he goes people say, "These songs are great, but can you make a CD so we can remember them and keep singing them?" So here is the first installment - songs from his community sings, school sings, church sings, plus a few originals by Nick Page.
