Voices of Connection: 07/13 Can’t Help Singing

Let’s have some sheer joy to start off the week! Yes, it is another contribution from our own Jim Bassi! Of course, it’s a great song to begin with, written by Kern for the 1944 movie musical by the same name. But I love Jim’s arrangement for a small choral ensemble and string quartet. We had a ball recording it! It’s just a lot of fun. If you want to see the song as originally done by Deanna Durbin in the movie go here.
