When Frozen was dubbed into 41 languages, it meant that 41 singers had to be selected for the popular favorite “ Let it Go .”  Hear 25 of the vocalists in 25 different languages.  It is really amazing to listen to one take of the song, with 25 different voices & languages all patched together.  Even though these are 25 vocalists, their voices meld into one. According to the Hollywood Reporter, “ Let it Go ” composer Robert Lopez is grateful that the animated hit’s 41 foreign-

Can you imagine meeting your celebrity crush or childhood idol ? What would you say? Some people turn into the quintessential fan and lose control of themselves. Others have somehow mastered the art of staying “cool”. It’s safe to say that these two young men stayed pretty cool under pressure. Bryce Hayashi and Michael Miller were courageous enough to stand in front of the home of their idol (John Williams of  Star Wars fame) and perform one of his most notorious compositions

Let’s start at the very beginning, a very good place to start. Only “Sound of Music” buffs will catch that reference. It will always be one of my personal favorite movies.

The Von Trapp Family Singers were like a breath of fresh air and their story has been passed on through the generations. Well here’s another breath of fresh air for our own modern day

In this TED talk Ryan Holladay of Bluebrain tells us why he is experimenting with what he describes as “location-aware music,” a project that he created with his brother, Hays.  Location-aware compositions are special albums composed specifically for a particular place – in this case, Central Park – and each track on the album is synced with the listeners locations within the area.  Remarkably those outside of Central Park can not access this album – the music is only availa

This video has us smiling and wishing we could hang out with this musical family. It features a father playing a trombone and a young son accompanying him by providing backup thanks to an oven door and the cutest head bob we’ve seen in years. They’re playing the dance song “Freaks” by Timmy Trumpet and Savage.  Never heard of the song or the musicians? Neither did we until we did some Internet research and discovered that Timmy Trumpet is an Australian musician specializing

If you missed Tori Kelly and James Bay’s performance at the 2016 Grammys, do yourself a favor and check it out . This was their first ever Grammy performance and it did not disappoint. Both Kelly and Bay were individually nominated in the best new artist category. Best “new” artist is a fairly inaccurate term. These artists had been grooming their talents for many many years long before they were given the title of best new artist. Tori Kelly built a massive YouTube following
