Golden Rule Music is a new service
from the folks at Plank Road Publishing
We may be the best known publisher you’ve never heard of.
Millions of the children in your congregations sing our music. And
many of their school music teachers also use our music with their church
choirs. Often these teachers have asked us to create more of our quality
music to use at church, and to share it with
other church directors. This has inspired us
to bring our music to those of you who
haven’t experienced it yet.
Eighteen years ago, we sat down in our
old farmhouse to plan a publishing company
that would help elementary music teachers
change the world for their students. Those
who use our products tell us that we are doing
just that. In those eighteen years, teachers
have used our music to reach their toughest
students, to bring their audiences to tears, and to unite entire schools in
programs to save the planet. Our music has helped a generation of
students stay in school, avoid drugs, learn about their world, and feel good
about their lives, their country, and their futures.
Plank Road Publishing was founded on several important
principles, and they continue to guide our way today:
• Our products are superbly recorded with children’s voices and top
professional instrumentalists. The music is educationally sound and
designed to motivate today’s children. While we create products that are
contemporary and exciting for students, we build on timeless concepts
that allow teachers to use these products for years to come.
• Our products are priced and packaged to provide high value for
schools and churches with limited budgets.
• We treat our customers and our staff as we would want to be treated.
All of our products are fully guaranteed, and when you call us, you get a
real person, a friendly one who cares about you and your order.
• As a company, we respect the environment, using recycled paper,
soy ink, and packaging with the least environmental impact.
We hope that you will listen to the enclosed sound sampler or visit
GoldenRuleMusic.com so that you can hear the quality for yourself. And
we hope that you will enjoy the products we have created for you!

A Jubilant New Christmas Program...
SING WITH US THE
CHRISTMAS STORY
A Program for Voices
Young and Older
Musical Arrangements by
Teresa and Paul Jennings
The concept is simple, and the
performance results will be
dramatic and moving for performers
and audiences alike. Take eight of
the most beloved carols, and
arrange them in simple vocal
arrangements, the way you expect
them to be (with optional second
parts). Now, create a narrative
based on the scriptural telling of
the Christmas story, broken into
segments that set up the songs. For
background, add richly orchestrated
recordings performed by top
professionals. As a final joyous
option, we have made all of these
arrangements appropriate for
congregational participation, with
intros that naturally lead them into
the song. And we’ve included
reproducible sing-along sheets for
the audience in addition to the
reproducible singer’s parts.
We are pleased to bring you this
superb Christmas program, inspired by our joy of the season and by the many requests we have
had for such a product.
If you doubt the power of this program, be sure to listen to sound excerpts on the
Sampler CD. And be sure to visit our web site for even longer, more detailed excerpts.
The carols that tell the Christmas story include:
• Angels We Have Heard On High
• O Little Town Of Bethlehem
• Away In A Manger
• The First Noel
• Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
• We Three Kings Of Orient Are
• Silent Night
• Joy To The World
And since the concept is simple but includes a lot of parts, we’ll list them all here to
make it a little easier...
• Eight favorite carols arranged simply with an optional part 2.
• Narration from Scripture usable for as many readers as you like.
• Arrangements appropriate for audience sing-along, with introductions and interludes
that logically lead the singers into each verse.
• Reproducible vocal parts for singers and sing-along lyric sheets for your audience.
• Director’s Handbook with playable Piano/Vocal parts and suggestions for staging and
costumes. It also includes reproducible scripts and customizable posters and program covers.
• A Performance/Accompaniment CD with three versions of the program: full
performance with narration, full performance with music only, and accompaniment only.
Create an inspiring performance that your singers and audience will remember
with joy.

An Incredible Collection of Christmas Songs...
ON THIS
CHRISTMAS DAY
Musical Traditions New and
Old For Young Voices
by Teresa Jennings,
Paul Jennings, and
John Riggio
For your Christmas
program, we have put together
a collection of some of our
favorite carols. These terrific
arrangements will work in a
variety of settings. On This
Christmas Day includes:
• O Come All Ye Faithful Designed for plenty of
flexibility, this powerful
arrangement by Teresa Jennings
can be performed in unison,
two, or three parts. The
stunning symphonic
accompaniment will help
your rehearsals and provide
special excitement to your
performances.
• The Friendly Beasts This gentle old carol is one
that you will want to share
with your singers, this year and
in the future. Four of the verses
are ideal for solos and are simple enough that they can be performed even by younger
singers. The Performance/Accompaniment CD for this song features a beautiful
arrangement with an expressive orchestration.
• The Angels Sang - Inspired by the concept of a heavenly troupe of young
musicians, this piece offers the perfect opportunity to spotlight your own little angels.
The song is a tasteful blend of folk, rock, and march styles, with simple lyrics and a
memorable melody.
• Joy To The World - Authentically set in the style of Handel, this joyous
arrangement of the classic Christmas carol is the perfect way to open a holiday
performance. It includes a recording that features a full orchestra of real instruments.
Don’t miss it!
• Masters In This Hall - Our arrangement of this well-loved English carol is set in
a Celtic style, with a rollicking feel reminiscent of its French dancing song roots. We’ve
included the traditional English sacred text. This beautiful song will be a great addition
to your program.
• Christmas Day - Here’s a really unique, stand-out Christmas song. “Anthem rock”
is perhaps the best description of this favorite, and that’s what makes it so popular with
young singers.
• The Coventry Carol - Our arrangement of this caroling song is short and simple,
but it will give your serious singers a chance to show off their voices. The superb
Performance/Accompaniment CD features a hauntingly beautiful brass choir and
oboe countermelody.
• Children, Go Where I Send Thee - Here’s a very lively, singable song that is
cumulative in nature. Once your singers understand the formula, they will follow it
easily.

THIS DAY OF PEACE
by Teresa Jennings
This tune was specifically written for International
Peace Day (Sept. 21), but it can be used in any similar
way, as it does not mention this occasion in particular. It
is a very gentle, lovely tune which can be performed as a
round. The lyrics and melody are both simple so that
anyone can learn it and sing along. Consider teaching it to all
of your choirs and even inviting your congregation to join in when it becomes a round
the second time through.

WE CELEBRATE AMERICA
by Teresa Jennings
Wow! Here’s a patriotic piece you’ll want to sing over and over.
And after your audience hears it, they’ll want to hear it again, too!
It’s that inspirational.
The melody and lyrics of the piece are easy and repetitious
enough for most vocalists to learn and remember. And since the
second part and the divisi part at the end are optional, it is quite
usable as a unison piece. The recorded accompaniment tracks
really drive this song. The sound will definitely inspire your singers.
There are even some fantastic fireworks sound effects at the end of
the song that will make everyone applaud. And since options are
key, there is also a track on the CD without the fireworks (in
case you want to provide your own).

SHARE YOUR GOODWILL
by Teresa Jennings
Gently tugging at our heart strings, this poignant rock anthem speaks of noting our
own good fortune and remembering that there are those less fortunate. The chorus truly
says it all, “Share your goodwill. Oh, share your goodwill. Oh, keep in mind humankind
and share your goodwill.” Simple. Powerful. Effective. It is ideal for encouraging your
congregation to participate in a food drive or other charitable program.

A SONG OF PEACE
by Teresa Jennings
This beautiful song was written long before the
9-11 tragedy, but during that terrible month many
people took it to heart, and it became a prominent
feature in thousands of concerts across the country.
The message is so sweet, so simple, and yet, so
profound. It starts with a poignant solo that is
well-suited for a young soloist, and builds to a chorus
that features an optional antiphonal 2-part section.
The kit includes illustrated instructions to help
you teach the optional sign language for the chorus
of the song.

While we have published some popular songs in the
past, this addition is especially cool. The instrumental
tracks are great, featuring a funky modal groove, and
the counterpoint is really striking. It is simple to sing,
but sophisticated enough to appeal to all ages. Best of
all, the song is designed to work in octaves so that boys

by Teresa Jennings
“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” It’s so

people deal with a world full of difficulties, we are offering this
gentle and lovely song. Most of us are familiar with
the Golden Rule, but how many of us find it
easy to actually employ it in everyday life?
Even with the best intentions, we often
forget. Perhaps a song can help us remember, especially if it’s a song we
learn when we are still young.

It is arranged so that it can also be a great

An Impressive Collection of All-American Songs...
WE SING OF AMERICA
Inspirational Songs
For Singers Of All Ages
by Teresa Jennings, Paul
Jennings, and John Riggio
The songs in this inspirational
collection are some of the most
popular, most performed works
we’ve ever published. They have
brought millions of people to their
feet and to tears. Be sure to listen
to the excerpts available on our
web site and on the Sampler CD
for this catalog. You’ll hear what
folks nationwide are talking about.
We Sing Of America includes:
• Blue and Red and White The musical contrasts and
powerful ending of this dramatic
song have produced inspirational
moments for thousands of young
choirs. It grows from a unison
opening to a moving “3-part
mixed” voicing later in the piece,
but it is arranged to work just as
well when sung in unison.
• The Heart Of America Upbeat and patriotic, this tune is
set in an easy-to-sing folk/rock
style that will have all of your
singers participating enthusiastically.
• My Flag - There’s just something about the sight of Old Glory that touches, calms, and
reassures, especially in times of conflict and fear. This quiet, lovely anthem to our flag is easy
enough for all of your singers to learn, even your youngest. The recording features a
symphonic setting which includes a beautiful clarinet choir at the verse.
• Allegiance Rap - Many Americans recite The Pledge of Allegiance regularly. Children
performing this compelling and dramatic setting make the words come to life. From the solo
electric guitar to the symphonic strings and brass, the recording of this piece is truly
inspirational and one that your kids will respond to positively. And if you prefer to avoid the
term “rap,” it is easily re-titled “The Pledge of Allegiance.”
• American Tears - One of Teresa’s most talked about works, this moving anthem is
appropriate any time you want to honor the sacrifice of our heroes from today and yesterday,
including Veterans Day, Memorial Day, or for programs for local fire and police personnel. It
was written to feature a soloist with choir, but it is also quite effective with just unison choir.
• Put Your Hand On Your Heart - This personal favorite is a unique blend of powerful
lyrics and infectious jazz fusion. It’s easy and fun to sing, and impossible to get out of your
head! Listen to the excerpt on our web site and you will know what we mean.
• The Star-Spangled Banner - Now when you need to sing our National Anthem for
any occasion, you have a singable arrangement (in A-flat) with a professional recording that
features a full orchestra with dramatic brass fanfares for added majesty.
• You Are Our Heroes - Though this ballad is dedicated to the heroes of September 11,
we hope that you will consider using it to honor the heroes in your own community as well.
Firefighters, policemen, rescue workers, veterans – anyone who has ever put his/her life on
the line for others deserves to be recognized and honored.
This is a collection that you will use over and over in years to come!

SONGS OF PEACE
AND JOY
Inspirational Music
For All Seasons
by Teresa and Paul Jennings
In an age of uncertainty and fear,
there cannot be too much
encouragement and positive
reinforcement. To this end, we have
assembled nine of our most powerful
songs in a collection that has
already become a classic. It includes:
• Light The Candles All
Around The World - Can you
imagine the global glow that
would be produced if everyone were
to light a candle all around the
world on the same day at the same
time? That’s the feeling of this
special song.
• A Time For Peace - This
gentle song is a natural not only for
winter performances but also works
wonderfully year-round. Exploring
the universal theme of peace, this
simple, powerful anthem is certain
to be one that both your singers
and audiences will remember for a
long time.
• Today Is The Day! - Positive
and uplifting, this song is a great way to open any performance or rehearsal. And it’s also
perfect for ending the year on an up note. It’s written in a true 3-part mixed setting, but,
like all of our music, it also works quite well in unison.
• Friends Are Like Diamonds - A sweet and gentle round, this song is a tribute to one
of the most important elements in any child’s life – friendship. And while it would be a
wonderful way to celebrate Valentine’s Day, it is also non-specific to the holiday, so it can
be used whenever and however you like.
• This Little Light Of Mine - This traditional tune with a long history became an
important symbol of the 1960’s civil rights movement. Our version is in a popular gospel
style, which is a joy to play or sing. Use it to discuss gospel music, Black History Month, or
the fight to gain civil rights and equality. Or use it to inspire your choirs’ own creativity by
encouraging them to add to the verses.
• Sing Of Joy! - Here’s an expressive 3-part partner song that fits into any celebration
with elegance and style. Based on Johann Sebastian Bach’s Jesu, Joy Of Man’s Desiring, this
adaptation gives you the opportunity to “Sing Of Joy.”
• Where Is The Peace? - No matter what size your group is, you’ll enjoy using this
poignant and rare original partner song about living together in peace. When the two
verses combine, the effect is truly striking.
• Dona Nobis Pacem - Our version of this famous canon is a real winner. Your
audience will love this 3-part partner song that builds gradually through four statements of
the melody to a grand “all-bells-and-whistles” ending.
• An Old Irish Blessing - “May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at
your back...” This simple, folk-like setting of the well-known blessing has a sound that is
reminiscent of Gustav Holst or Percy Grainger. It is a perfect way to end or add a quiet
moment to any performance.

WARM-UPS FOR
YOUNG VOICES
by Anne Ellsworth and
Teresa Jennings
Properly warming up young singers
can be tough, especially when you
have a limited amount of time with
them and when your singers are easily
distracted. By popular demand, Anne
and Teresa have created a fundamental
set of warm-ups designed with these
challenges in mind.
Anne Ellsworth is one of the
nation’s finest sopranos, and brings to
this project her extensive training with
top vocal instructors along with her
background with The San Francisco
Opera and many top choral groups. Of
course, she is equally at home with jazz
and pop stylings, and working with
children. She has worked for a number
of years now with her sister, Teresa
Jennings, to help produce the superb
recordings that make all of Plank Road
Publishing’s products so special.
In the recording studio, where time is at a premium, Teresa and Anne have a
unique ability to get children singing energetically and musically no matter what
the style of the work. The first few minutes of each session are the key to their
success, as they carefully warm up the singers and establish the mood. In this
wonderful set of exercises, they share some of their secrets in a format that is
practical, methodical, and pedagogically sound. And as you might expect, they
have also included a couple of specially arranged “just for fun” exercises
guaranteed to loosen up your singers and help you relax them in rehearsal or
before a performance when this can be very important.
The Teacher’s Handbook includes all of the warm-ups written out and
discussed, along with other helpful warm-up tips from the authors. The special
Performance/Accompaniment CD includes a full demonstration of each
warm-up, as well as just the accompaniment to free you from the piano or to help
you in situations where you don’t have easy access to a piano or other
instruments. This is a product that you will use over and over for many
years to come.

What To Expect
From Our Products...
We believe that if you listen to our products, they will speak for themselves,
which is why we make recorded excerpts of them readily available online and on
our free Sampler CDs. But we also thought that it might be nice to take a moment
and tell you a little more about what you will find when a product arrives.
Performance/Accompaniment Recordings - Virtually all of
Plank Road Publishing’s products have recordings that
feature at least two performances of each song. There is a
Full Performance, with children singing the words over the
appropriate accompaniments. Then, there is an
Accompaniment Only recording which features
just the accompaniment tracks and any sound
effects that aren’t meant to be performed by
the children.
All of our recordings are available on
professionally mastered, high-quality CDs.
Real Musicians – Real Instruments –
Great Recordings - We are proud of our recordings and
spend a lot of time doing them right. We use top professional musicians, playing
real instruments with orchestrations appropriate to the style of the
piece. If the song needs a string quartet, that’s what you’ll
hear. And if the tune calls for a rock band, it will be a
superb one, recorded in a way that your singers
will enjoy. If you listen to our Sampler CDs,
you will hear big bands, polka bands, folk
groups, Dixieland groups, and full orchestras
as well.
Do we use synthesizers and electronic
keyboards? Certainly. We take a
truckload of them to every recording
session. But we go to these instruments
to find sounds that are unique to them.
We don’t use them instead of strings,
banjos, or saxophones.
Even though many other publishing companies charge much more for
their recordings, you will find that ours are unsurpassed in quality.
Legally Reproducible Music & Money-Saving Kits We pioneered the concept of legally reproducible music for music
educators. Virtually all of Plank Road Publishing’s products
come with the right to freely duplicate the music. Even
products that have separate Student Editions for sale come with
reproducible lyric sheets.
We always try to be sensitive to tight music budgets, so
we offer our products in money-saving kits that combine
various components at a reduced cost. See the pricing
information for exact contents of each kit.
And even though our prices are very competitive, we
pay a little extra to print all of our products on recycled
paper with soy-based ink.

• Sing Of America - Add
some variety to your
performances with this partner
song with a Gospel feel. Like most of our music, however, it can also be sung in unison,
making it suitable for various groups.
• America - It probably won’t surprise you to hear that “America” is one of the
nation’s four or five most popular patriotic songs. Our version is a solid arrangement
that’s suitable for any performance.
• You’re A Grand Old Flag - This is a perennial favorite that is fun to sing and
easy to move to.
• America The Beautiful - Here’s a song that is downright inspirational and
patriotic. Add to that the fact that most kids already know the melody and probably
most of the lyrics, and you’ve got instant success on your hands. Bring out the flags and
prepare to raise a few goosebumps!
• America, My Home - This stirring patriotic classic is a memorable work that
stays in the minds of listeners and singers alike.
• The Stars And Stripes Forever - Take your singers back to an era when popular
songs could only be heard in a live performance, and when the most popular performing
group was a band of men in elaborate uniforms playing marches.
• Yankee Doodle’s Pony - Once again, Teresa has come up with a cute partner song
for a well-known classic. This time, she adapts “Yankee Doodle” to be sung in a swing
style. Use it to provide a new twist to a patriotic favorite.
• There Are Many Flags In Many Lands - This traditional flag song is an old
favorite that is ideal for a simple setting and is very usable by almost any age group.
To get the full effect of these moving songs, be sure to use the Performance/
Accompaniment CD. The orchestrations are rich and full, often featuring an
orchestra full of real strings, real trumpets, and real woodwinds.

A Special Collection for Thanksgiving...
A TIME TO
GIVE THANKS
A Collection For Young Voices
With Optional Thanksgiving
Revue Script
by Teresa Jennings
November is a time when
Americans pause to reflect on
those things for which we are
grateful. Just as the Pilgrims did,
we gather with family and friends
to celebrate. We know that music
directors work hard to help choirs
understand why we do this, and
over the years, Plank Road
Publishing has written many songs
– both humorous and poignant –
to help celebrate this important
time of the year. You can even use
this collection as a Thanksgiving
Revue with the script that is
included in the Teacher’s
Handbook.
A Time To Give Thanks
includes the following:
• Gratitude Attitude - Help
your kids develop a great gratitude
attitude. With its simple format
and unison, easy-to-learn melody,
this lively Latin song will help
your singers think about some of the things in their lives that they are grateful for.
• Mashed Potatoes - Most holiday celebrations, no matter what they are for, involve
food. And usually, mashed potatoes are central to any menu. Like this song, they’re also
lots of fun. Your kids will have a hard time sitting still with this boogie woogie tune.
• Pilgrims - We have had many requests for a song about the Pilgrims, and this unique
story song is a tribute to those brave people who crossed the Atlantic in 1620. The song is
in a gentle, folk style with a light rock beat.
• Thankful For The U.S.A. - Set in an infectious Nashville rock style, this song is an
inspiration and a reminder to all of us that we are truly fortunate to be Americans. While it
is great for Thanksgiving, it will provide energetic fun at any time of year. The melody is
simple, memorable, and repetitious.
• Thanksgiving Day - This is a simple, reflective, straightforward song about
Thanksgiving. It has absolutely nothing to do with Pilgrims, turkeys, football, parades, or
the beginning of the Christmas season, just giving thanks. As a nice option, a recorder
obbligato part is included. You can treat it as a solo obbligato, or use several recorders along
with several voices for a really neat effect.
• The Turkey Woogie - Where would we be without turkeys at Thanksgiving time?
Who else would teach us to dance and celebrate?! Kids everywhere have had a ball singing
and moving to this lively song. It’s easy to sing and it comes complete with enjoyable
movement instructions and a sizzling big band accompaniment that makes it very easy for
your young performers to really get into it.
• We Are Thankful - There is no season for gratitude – it’s always important! This tune
is ideal for the celebration of Thanksgiving or any other event that calls for gratitude or
appreciation. Set in a style that’s a cross between folk, gospel, and good ol’ boom-chick,
your singers will have a great time performing this song at any time of the year.

Light-Hearted Moments For Your Christmas Programs
THE TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS
arranged and adapted by Paul and Teresa Jennings
Paul and Teresa Jennings have arranged this cumulative Christmas
favorite in a new treatment that adds an appropriate new sound effect for
each day and its “present.” As you keep adding days... and sound effects...
the final result is hilarious. (Note that the sound effects you hear on the
sampler are on the Full Performance recording only. We leave them out of the
Accompaniment Only recording so that your students can have the fun of doing
their own sound effects. The product comes with notes that will help you
develop your own.) The recording features a clever orchestration that
enhances each verse, with digital recordings that will add polish to
your rehearsals and performances.

THE TWELVE DAYS OF JOYOUS
INSTRUMENTS
by Teresa and Paul Jennings
It is great fun and a unique educational opportunity
to gather lots of performers together to play in an
instrumental ensemble. This holiday spectacular brings
together kazoos, Boomwhackers®, and a host of other
favorite instruments.
For this extravaganza, we have taken “The Twelve
Days Of Christmas” and adapted the lyrics for each
instrument or group of instruments (“...and a partridge in a
pear tree” becomes “...and kazoos of red and green”). After
each instrument’s mention in the song, there is a short
interlude that allows the instrument to play, and it
proceeds as the cumulative song we all know and love. As
you would expect, it features drums, jingles, rhythm sticks,
shakers, triangles, Boomwhackers®, kazoos, and more.
To make sure that this works for a wide variety of
groups, we offer pages of special instructions for using the instruments, including
substitutes, and even options for making your own instruments. The kit also includes a
score for the director and reproducible parts for singers and instrumentalists. This is a
work that’s guaranteed to be a favorite of performers and audiences alike.

O COME ALL YE FAITHFUL
arr. Teresa Jennings
In this powerful new arrangement, Teresa Jennings
has created a work that can serve equally well as an
opener or a finale for your Christmas programs.
Designed for plenty of flexibility, it can be performed
in unison, two or three parts, and even has an
optional solo soprano descant part. It sounds great
with various sizes of groups, including larger
multi-age combinations, and even with audience
participation if you like. The Performance/

MASTERS IN THIS HALL
arr. John Riggio
John’s lovely arrangement of this well-loved English carol is set in a Celtic style, with a
rollicking feel reminiscent of its French dancing song roots. He’s added jingle bells (it is a
Christmas carol, after all), and over everything, a fiddle and penny whistle play a spirited
motif. We’ve also included both the traditional English sacred text and alternate secular
lyrics, so you can use this beautiful song in any holiday performance. (Also featured in

in counterpoint to the solo, and they all come together for the closing of this memorable
setting. It is one that you will want to share with your students, this year and in the

KANDLE LIGHTS™
We’re amazed at how popular Kandle Lights™ have been.
They have enhanced performances all over the world. And it’s
no wonder – they produce an amazingly natural, warm,
candle-like glow without the smoke, wax, or fire hazard of real
candles. At about 6 1/2 inches tall, they are lightweight,
water-resistant, and produced by a company that makes medical
devices, so they are very safe for young folks. They come with
two new high-power AAA Energizer® batteries already installed,
and they are carefully designed with a tough space-age shell and
a bulb cover that makes the light look like it comes from a real
candle. They are sturdy, so they can be used with movement,
and if used only intermittently, the batteries can last for three to
four years. No matter how hard you use them, though, they are
absolutely the finest electric candles. Order early, though... we
buy all the company can produce and some years that isn’t enough!

WHEN THE LIGHTS ALL SHINE
by Teresa Jennings
More than ever, songs of peace and brotherhood seem to be
needed. Especially ones that our young people can sing out with
heartfelt enthusiasm. This song is positive, uplifting, energizing,
and inspirational – exactly the right thing for a holiday
performance. It speaks of candles being lit one by one in countries
all over the world until “the lights all shine as one” and “the
journey to peace has begun.” This will be a very powerful and

Sweet and simple, this lovely tune begins with a series of short solos (full ensemble

dramatic candle passing ceremony as they sang – a striking effect to watch. While it can

aspects is the repeating section that has members of the choir reciting the
names of the 50 states in alphabetical order. The singers can light a new
candle or other light with each new state. This leads to an all-out
blockbuster ending guaranteed to bring your audience to its feet.

PEACE ON EARTH
by Teresa Jennings
Set in an infectious gospel style, this moving selection has
proven to be very popular. The verse is meant to be sung by soloists,
up to four of them, with the full ensemble joining in for the chorus.
This piece is full of musical subtleties that will make it a work of
growth for some groups, but it is well worth it. There is one point
where everyone is singing full force until they stop, re-entering with
a subito mezzo piano. It’s the sort of musical moment that can send
chills through your performers when they do it right. These are the
memories that will keep young singers coming back.
While the second part is a bit challenging in places – it is
definitely optional – the piece sounds great even in unison. To add
to the drama of your performance, we have also provided the
option of sign language. The authentic gospel instrumental
performance brings it all together for this unique song.

song: full performance, accompaniment with background vocals, and accompaniment only.

EV’RYONE DESERVES A HOME & LEND A HELPING HAND!
by Teresa Jennings
With “Ev’ryone Deserves A Home,” the lesson is simple: “Ev’ryone
deserves a home, ev’ryone deserves a place to belong.” Once your
children and their families have experienced this song, they
won’t look at homelessness the same. “Lend A Helping
Hand!” is a driving rock tune that may be the perfect
anthem for sharing the load and helping your fellow
man. Help plant a seed that will stay with your
singers all their lives.
You can hear excerpts of these two songs on
Sampler E or on our web site. (It’s from a nice musical called This Old Gingerbread House.)
They are the fourth and fifth songs on that excerpt. Call us toll-free for a copy of this
Sampler or any of the other Samplers of our products.
And since these are ideal for use with any charity drive or fund-raiser, we will give them
free to any church or school that promises to use them with a food drive or other similar project.
If you order the songs by themselves, though, we will ask you to pay for shipping.

It will even work well with smaller groups with limited

proud to offer this song in this popular format. It grows from a unison opening to a moving

setting of The Pledge of Allegiance. Children performing it this
way make the words come to life. From the solo electric guitar to
the symphonic strings and brass to the thumping bass and rock
drums, the recording of this piece is truly inspirational. The first
time through, it is rapped in unison. The second time through, it
becomes a call and response rap. And in a performance situation
it is perfect for movement.

THANKFUL FOR THE U.S.A.
by Teresa Jennings
Set in an infectious Nashville rock style, this song
is an inspiration and a reminder to all of us that we
are truly fortunate to be Americans. While it is great
for Thanksgiving, it will provide energetic fun at any
time of year. The melody is simple, memorable, and
repetitious. In fact, we’re betting that even your
audience will pick it up so fast that you will be able
to invite them to sing along by the time you get to
the key change! And as with all Plank Road
Publishing songs, the recording is exciting, featuring
a great rhythm track and a powerful, brassy orchestration. (Also featured in the collection
A Time To Give Thanks.)

AMERICAN TEARS
by Teresa Jennings
While this moving anthem has been used by thousands of schools for September 11
memorial performances, it is also appropriate for any time you want to honor the sacrifice of
our heroes from today and yesterday, including Veterans Day, Memorial Day, or programs for
local fire and police personnel. It was written to feature a soloist with choir, but it is also
quite effective with just unison choir. The melody is simple but poignant, and it has
already become one of Teresa’s most talked about compositions. Be sure to hear it online
if you haven’t already done so. You will understand how powerful this song is. (Also
featured in the collection We Sing Of America.)

THOSE WHO SERVED
by Teresa Jennings
Originally written for use on or around Memorial Day, this
beautiful, moving, and powerful song honors the brave men and
women who have given the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
However, it can be used on many occasions to honor any veterans
or those soldiers who are still serving. The tone and interpretation
of the piece will depend on the circumstances under which it is
presented. This song will linger in the hearts and minds of your
singers and audience, no matter where it is performed.

PROUD OF OUR VETERANS
by Teresa Jennings
Poignant and anthem-like, this majestic song expresses our
thanks to the citizens who have given so much of themselves for the good of their
country. While the song is written in two parts, the second part is optional and it is a
natural harmony that should not be too difficult to learn.

MAKING MUSIC
Create! Play! Experience!
Making Music is the first true composing space for children. It
presents the components of music visually and aurally, so kids can
bring all their senses to bear. It is a program for children of any age
and is intended to let them experience what composing music is like
before embarking on formal music training.
As a pioneer in electronic music and interactive computer music
systems, composer Morton Subotnick built it from the ground up so
that it would be completely interactive and totally fun! By playing
Making Music, your students will have a
great introduction to different kinds of
instruments, tempo, melody, rhythm, and
sound. (Mac and Windows)

HEARING MUSIC
The Program That Teaches You How To Listen!
Designed to include hearing music as a step in the music learning
process, this program breaks music down to patterns and levels, from
beginner to advanced. Hearing Music gives children the opportunity
to train their ears to identify different parts of music, encouraging
them to hear the nuances in a melody, the change in a rhythm,
and the subtleties woven into pieces by famous composers. A
computer-adaptive program makes the games progressively
harder or easier as the child moves through four different
levels per game. When a level is completed, children are
treated to a rousing, animated rendition of the Hallelujah
chorus from Handel’s Messiah. (Mac and Windows)

Boomwhackers ® are tuned percussion tubes
made from lightweight plastic that are played by
striking your leg, hand, a table, the floor, just
about anything! The neat thing is that any surface
you use will produce the same musical pitch.
Boomwhackers ® come in five different combinations.
The Pentatonic set includes six pitches: C’, D’, E’, G’,
A’, C”. The Diatonic set includes eight pitches: C’, D’,
E’, F’, G’, A’, B’, C”. The Bass Diatonic set includes seven
pitches: C to B. You can also order Chromatics and Bass
Chromatics tubes to enhance and fill out the repertoire of
your Boomwhackers ®. The regular octave ranges in length
from about 12" to 24". The bass octave continues to a little
over 48". Each tube is labeled by note.
All sets come with instructions and a reusable mesh tote bag.
OCTAVATOR™ TUBE CAPS
We offer the full line of Boomwhackers ®, including the Octavator™
Tube Caps. When placed on the end of any of your Boomwhackers ®,
these nifty little caps will lower the tone by one octave! You can play
the tubes as usual, or hold them vertically and tap on the floor as a
“stamping” tube. All Boomwhacker® products are proudly made in the U.S.A.

exuberant arrangements. Your players will
thank you for it with their joy and
learning. This unique collection includes

WE WISH YOU A
WHACKY CHRISTMAS
arr. Teresa Jennings, Paul Jennings,
John Riggio, and Karl Hitzemann
We sure have had a lot of fun working
with Boomwhackers®. And apparently,
we’re not the only ones. Since we began
publishing music for these colorful,
pitched plastic tubes, we have found them
to be a real favorite. Kids of all ages really
think they’re cool and fun to play, and
directors really love the enthusiasm and
interest they spark in their performers.
One of our most popular Boomwhacker®
collections has been A Boomwhacker®
Christmas (see above). So, by popular
demand, we have created We Wish You A
Whacky Christmas. It’s a great collection of
seasonal songs for Boomwhackers® and
other joyous instruments.
All of the arrangements work with one
or more sets of Diatonic Boomwhackers®
(C Major or Bass), some arrangements offer
the option for the Chromatic Add-ons or
have optional second parts to include more
players and expand learning possibilities.
All of the songs are included on the
Performance/Accompaniment CD, though some can easily be performed with just
Boomwhackers® and simple percussion. We Wish You A Whacky Christmas includes “Angels
We Have Heard On High,” “We Wish You A Whacky Christmas,” “Over The River,”
“I Saw Three Ships,” “We Three Kings,” “Here We Come A-Caroling,” “The First
Noel,” and “The Holly And The Ivy.”
