It's Your Birthday!

If you ever wanted an alternative to the usual humdrum birthday song that everyone always sings, here's a good candidate for you! It's very short, very simple, and very interactive (unlike that "other" song). It even includes a mini-study in dynamics, so you can use it to teach decrescendo and subito forte to your young singers! One hint: we suggest that you have one singer hold up fingers to count the four times the figure repeats before the abrupt loud clapping, just to help everyone keep track.
