I’m Fine Kathleen Werth, 10 I utilized Bandlab (an app with drum beats and mixing options) to put the layering of my song together and form music.

Hearts beat louder than a gunshot. It’s all too much to bear, can’t take it. It’s all too much to weigh my shoulders with. But I’m fine, I’m fine, I keep it on the inside. I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m scared, I’m scared. I’m scared to keep it on the inside. I’m scared, I’m scared, I’m scared. Never thought it comes to this. This is all too much to take. My chest is pounding, I can’t take a rest. Never know. But I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m fine to keep it on the inside. I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m scared, I’m scared, I’m scared. You know it’s true. Maybe you feel it too. You know it’s true. I’m not the only one! ‘Cause I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m fine to keep it on the inside. I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine. But I’m scared, I’m scared. I’m scared to keep it on the inside. I’m scared, I’m scared, I’m scared.

Moonlight Waltz, music by Micah Lim, 11
Micah Lim, 11Guilford, CT Moonlight Waltz Micah Lim, 11 “Moonlight Waltz” is a new piece written for piano, saxophone, and drums. I was inspired to compose this when I started learning about jazz style. I wanted to incorporate some of the things I learned to compose a waltz. It is called “Moonlight Waltz” because I imagine dances under moonlight to be very beautiful. You can listen to Micah performing his music by clicking the image of the music on the left. Warning: you will probably find yourself starting to waltz around the room as the music plays! If you are a pianist or saxophonist, why not try playing Micah’s piece yourself?
