Reflections of My Childhood, by Houry Yapoujian Schmeizl
This
illustrated children's book and CD of 26 songs, poems, nursery rhymes
and prayers captures generations of Armenian musical traditions in an
inviting style that brings entire families together in song and
spirit. In Reflections Of My Childhood,
Armenian-American musician Houry Yapoujian Schmeizl performs modern
arrangements of timeless songs that have been passed down through
Armenian families for centuries. Poems and prayers from Armenia that
teach kids traditional stories and important moral lessons are recited
with delight to charm kids of all ages and inspire a passion to
explore the heritage of Armenia.
And
as an invaluable service to people from Armenia, America and around
the world, this book and companion CD for children includes Armenian
text, pronunciation track, English translations and transliterations
of the Armenian singing so anyone can listen, enjoy and understand
these very special children's songs without requiring any Armenian
language skills. It also comes with music in lead sheet form for
piano, guitar and vocal with every song transcribed into standard
musical notation. This insightful, one of a kind collection will
become a treasured family songbook for Armenians and Americans alike,
for many generations to come.

"THANK YOU - we received your new book and CD. It is absolutely
fantastic! It's such an impressive project. There is so much detail
and love that went into it. It's very obvious. Bravo to you! The
illustrations are adorable and so touching that the Sunday School
drew the pics. We wish you tremendous success with your book and CD!
We can't wait to start playing the music and singing the songs with
Jake."
