2 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, Director of School Choral and Classroom Publications Sally Albrecht, Director of School Choral & Classroom; Andy Beck, Managing Editor of School Choral & Classroom; Martha Buchta, Associate Editor of School Choral & Classroom; Michael Spresser, Alfred Pop & Lawson-Gould Choral Editor.
