“Tzena, Tzena”
Traditional
Made popular by the folk singing group the Weavers in the 1950s, this Israeli tune has delighted ears and
hearts with its playfulness and sparkle. We have enjoyed learning it in the traditional fiddle style of “hear
a little, play a little back” and not using sheet music.
Feature: Lauren Weese, Grace Robertson, Jessica Chapa – String Trio
“Noble Maiden Fair”
Patrick Doyle
“Cielito Lindo”
arr. Jorge Vargas
A beloved classic of Mexican traditional music, Cielito Lindo roughly translates to “sweet little one” or
“cute little one,” and is commonly heard at events such as soccer games. If at first you don’t recognize
the melody, keep listening for the “Ay, yi, yi, y…” section.
Percussion Ensemble
Mr. Robert Fajardo – Director
“Xylatin”
Paul Jebe
Xylatin is an exploration of the music of the Americas. Mr. Jebe combines a wide array of timbres to
make a fun, tuneful, and syncopated piece of music that portrays the musical developments from Europe
to the Americas.
Feature: Lee Shaw – Snare Drum & Amanda Monsalve – Piccolo

Symphonic Band

Combined Bands, Choir and Strings Finale
“God Bless America”
Irving Berlin, arr. John Edmondson
This stirring yet simple melody has made it the most popular modern patriotic song of the century. Of all
the timeless songs of Irving Berlin, this is perhaps his crowning achievement. The audience is invited to
stand and sing on the repeat of the chorus:
Chorus: God bless America…land that I love. Stand beside her, and guide her…through the night with
a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans white with foam. God bless
America…my home, sweet home. God bless America…my home…sweet, sweet… home.
Feature: Danielle Jackson – Piano
