Able ARTS Work Quarantunes: Episode 5
Welcome to episode 5 of “Quarantunes” where quarantine can’t stop our creativity! For this new episode, we get to experience musical expression by our artists at CECA (Cultural Education Center for the Arts). You’ll hear great narration from DJ PJ as well as, original music compositions.
You’re listening to Art Beat Radio, a program by Able Arts Work.
Our first song was written by CECA artist Jenny Lurvey. Her lyrics talk about a cruelty free world and talk about a place called the Gentle Barn – a barn that allows animals to live free. This song is called Vision for A New World.
1:07 “Vision For A New World” by Jenny Lurvey
“Healthy, cruelty free food and water should be free,
People shouldn’t have to go without it,
We need a miracle,
People need to feel like they have access to what they need.
The gentle barn teaches kindness and compassion
They try to set an example,
Peace on Earth”
The second song today is from our CECA Songwriting class. It was written collaboratively between members of the class – each artist making choices about the melody, tempo and instruments that were being used in the song. It uses the “Amen Brother” drum break, one of the most sampled pieces of music of all time.
2:46 “Happy Song” - Written by the CECA Songwriting Class
“This is a song, written by CECA, all about what makes us happy
PlayStation puts me in a good mood!
Mariachis make beautiful music
Tacos are fun for everyone!
We like painting rainbows
Avocado Sandwiches are so tasty!
Yeah, they’re so tasty! mmm
Hope you had a good time”
This next song was also written by the CECA Songwriting class. It is a song about the comic being written collaboratively in the Crafting Comics class. It tells the story of Dinosaur The Archer, a character from the comic. You can hear student vocal contributions as well as the instrumental choices they made.
4:33 “Dinosaur the Archer” - Written by the CECA Songwriting Class
I am a monster
They call me Dinosaur the archer
I hunt by the river
The river is my best friend
They tell me the weather
They’re strong and in a circle, they’re purple
They're hard to swim in and they talk to me
Hi
This next song was created by students of the Music Video Makers class at Able ARTS Work. Students collaborated to choose a song to parody, write lyrics and record virtual instruments on Garageband. This hello song is meant to highlight the virtual layout of classes on Zoom.
7:05 “Hello to You”
Whoa! Hello to you!
Saying hi to all my friends!
Hello to you!
It is time we say hello
Hello! Hello! I’m saying hello
Whoa! Wave hello!
We’re waving to all our friends
Now say hello!
Say hello to all your friends!
Hello! Hello! How are you?
Right now we’re on Zoom
Meeting up with all our friends (x2)
Now smile at your friends
We’re smiling at all our friends
Now give a high-five
Give a virtual high-five
Hello! Hello! We’re saying hello
Right now we’re on Zoom
Meeting up with all our friends (x2)
Whoa! Hello to you!
To you and to you!
Hello to all!
It is time we say hello
Hello! Hello! I’m saying hello.
Whoa! Hello to all!
To you and to you!
Hello to you!
