Tell Me, Tell Me, 1994-1995

Описание: “Dear Listener, You hold in your hand a moment, a snapshot of the musical life of The American School of The Hague. 350 students (of ASH) were recorded in their various choirs, ensembles and bands. What you will listen to will not be the U.S. Marine band… it will be the joyful, creative expression of children from around the world, the creation of a school that believes that all children should have an opportunity to participate in an active musical experience.”

Let this album take you on a musical journey of our students through the 1994-1995 school year, led by Gary Cramer, former ASH staff and renowned music teacher. He also famously wrote the school song Tell Me Tell Me, to which this album is entitled.
