Songs Children Sing

Songs Children Sing celebrates the music of Aline Shader (1936 - 2002) who loved the sound of young voices, the smiles on young faces and the joy that comes from singing together. 

Aline was a drama teacher in Newton MA and a prolific composer of children’s music. Her many musicals were developed with a special part to play for every student.

Aline understood the power of music to build confidence, spur imagination, and foster the unity that singing together brings. 

"Here In My House" and "Una luna brilla" (in English and Spanish) are her best-known songs.

In 2019, Carlos Henriquez, bassist with Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, arranged 15 of Aline’s songs for big band and youth chorus. The concert at Berklee Performance Center featured the Boston Children’s Chorus, led by Anthony Trecek-King and members of Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra.
