From the Archives is a series created in tandem with new PIO!<\/i> Editor Brigid Finucane. We share songs from the extensive archives here at CMN by our own, wonderful members. This song, perfect for the Holiday season, is by Children’s Music Network member Elise Witt<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThank You\u201d was written during a residency at Garden Hills Elementary School in Atlanta GA. My students spoke 40 different languages among them, and we all shared the way our culture says \u201cthank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elise was born in Switzerland and speaks five languages fluently. She has been fascinated with language since moving to the United States as a 4-year old, and aspires to learn all the languages in the world. Her programs for students \u201cA Musical Trip Around the World\u201d and \u201cMusic is Language\/Language is Music,\u201d get students excited about language and culture through singing and composing. Since 2008, Elise has been creating a music program at the Global Village Project<\/a>, a school for teenage refugee girls in Decatur GA, teaching English through singing and songwriting. Elise also teaches An Impromptu Glorious Chorus\u2122 community vocal workshops for adults around the United States and around the globe. Her latest recording We\u2019re All BORN SINGING<\/a>, celebrates the power of music, especially singing to vibrate body and soul and bring us together as community.<\/p>\n
