Riza Printup's: I Have A Song Inside My Heart
Through the vehicle of jazz, the goal of I Have A Song Inside My Heart™ is to help young audiences identify their personal truth, embrace their unique and beautiful individuality, and become empowered in self expression.
I Have A Song Inside My Heart™, (based on the children's book Theodore and Hazel and The Bird) was developed with the belief that everyone has a voice, a song yearning to be expressed. Our feelings, our ideas, our experiences are unique and uniquely ours. Through the music and basic concepts of jazz, we believe we can help tap into our songs, the well of our hearts and souls, our authentic selves.
In partner with Bold City Music Productions, I Have A Song Inside My Heart™ has been brought to Beauclerc Elementary, Fishweir Elementary, Central Riverside Elementary, Greenland Pines Elementary schools.
