More about this title

About the Composer: Jill Gallina

Jill Gallina

Jill Gallina stands among the most performed composers of musical theatre for young singers, with her work reaching elementary through senior high school choirs across the English-speaking world. Her compositions have earned recognition from the Parents Choice Foundation, American Library Service, and ASCAP, and have been featured on The Disney Channel, PBS, The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, and performances by The Boston Pops and New York Philharmonic. Before dedicating herself to composition full time, Gallina taught elementary school music, an experience that deeply informs her understanding of what young singers need and what captures their imagination.

Working alongside her collaborator Dr. Michael Gallina, she has created musicals and choral works performed thousands of times annually across the globe. The Gallinas' compositions have sold millions of copies and earned them the Stanley Austin Alumni Award from the College of New Jersey for their sustained contributions to the field. Both hold degrees from the College of New Jersey; Jill earned her B.A. in music, while Michael completed both a Master's degree and a Doctorate in administration and supervision from Rutgers University.

Why we love this

Gallina delivers spring programming that actually holds young singers' attention. The musical theatre approach means your K-4 students will stay engaged through rehearsal and come to performance day genuinely excited to sing, not just going through the motions of another assembly song.

What to expect

Bright, playful, and full of the kind of joy that comes when young singers discover they can carry a melody and tell a story at the same time. The spring theme brings natural energy, and Gallina's melody-first approach means even beginning readers find something satisfying to sing.

Who it's for

Elementary music teachers and choir directors working with K-4 singers who need a spring concert centerpiece that combines storytelling with accessible singing. This resource works equally well for classroom performances, assemblies, or full concert presentations.

How to get the most out of it

  • Record a video performance for families who can't attend in person; young singers gain confidence seeing themselves on screen, and it extends the reach of their hard work.
  • Divide your singers into small groups for solo and small ensemble sections to build confidence and ensure every voice gets a turn in the spotlight.
  • Layer the recorded accompaniment with live percussion or simple unpitched instruments to add energy without overwhelming young voices.

How to use it

Use this as your spring concert anchor or end-of-year celebration piece. The reproducible format means your entire school can participate, making it ideal for an all-grades performance or a classroom-by-classroom rotating program.

Skills your students will build

  • Singing with clear diction in a theatrical context
  • Following a narrative arc through sequential musical numbers
  • Balancing ensemble blend with individual expressive singing
  • Reading and interpreting rhythm and melody notation in a performance setting
  • Building confidence as a performer in front of an audience
