Please note: The following videos are not great quality so are best seen small rather than fullscreen.

We accompanied our performance with American Sign Language.





Tsuki No Kobune a Japanese lullaby by Shang Shang Typhoon, arranged by Alise Ojay. Grateful thanks to Shang Shang Typhoon (who we have been unable so far to contact - can anyone help?) for writing such a beautiful lullaby and to Megumi Kobuta for helping us with the phonetics.

The words mean: "Let's find a dream in a little moon boat that is floating in the milky way. The moon boat rocks as waves of stars come and go. A shooting star chases the moon boat rocking the moon boat."





Mother composed by First Nation singer songwriters Soni, Pura Fé and Jennifer, collectively known as Ulali. There is an amazing recording of this song on their CD "Mahk Jchi". We are very grateful to Pura Fé for giving us permission to sing their songs. We love singing them!
