Songs of a Disney Sidekick (Medley) arr. Alan Billingsley, SATB with piano and optional combo
There are Disney heroes and there are Disney villains, but this rip-roaring barn-burner of a choral arrangement belongs to those fringe characters that inhabit the sideline of the story–they make us chuckle, cry, swoon, and offer up the invaluable support that the leads often need more than anything: it’s a Disney sidekick.

The Voice of Disney (The Music of the Sherman Brothers) arr. Mac Huff, 2-part with piano
Three classic Disney songs, from writers Richard and Robert Sherman, are skillfully arranged for young voices in this delightful medley: “It’s A Small World,” “Chim Chim Cher-ee,” and “I Wan’na Be Like You.”

Swingin’ with the Beatles (Medley) arr. Mac Huff, 3-part mixed with piano
