Recorded by Montreal elementary school students as part of an ambitious multimedia music project

Students from 13 schools in the English Montreal School Board (EMSB) are on what they call an itchy, stinky, musical journey.

160 students sang in Oscar Peterson Music Hall on Concordia University's Loyola Campus in NDG as part of a large-scale multimedia project.

They are making a version of the children's book The Adventures of Lousa Eva by Michalis Makropoulos with illustrations by Philippe Beha.

A picture book and CD of the children's singing with a 40-piece orchestra is planned for this fall.
