PS22 Chorus "FIREWORK" Katy Perry (Oscars Press Conference) 

that soloist was amazing I would have never thought such a big powerful voice come from a little girl! BRAVO

The fact that this was in the Katy perry movie though

wow that girl that wears the blue in the middle is a good singer

Thank you PS22 for doing what you do. I came here to tell you that your voices were played all day today at my niece Raelyn Cutbirth's Celebration of life ceremony. She passed away at age 4 from cancer (rhabodmyosarcoma). This was her favorite version of this song and so we celebrated her life by playing it during every part of the service. Thank you for bringing her joy and for allowing all of us to feel it today too. What your passionate about matters to other people, even if you don't know it. #rememberraelyn

I just love how they’re allowed to move and have fun 😭 I remember getting in trouble so much for moving when I was in chorus 😂

Heard this in the Katy Perry movie and I just had to find it. I have goosebumps AMAZING x

Every time I listen to the ps 22 chorus I always feel emotional and have a knot in my throat and the occasional shower of tears of joy and happiness. Mr. B you have created a wonderful chorus and opportunity for elementary school kids to show their talent.

7 years later and I'm still coming back and crying my eyes out

I started to get goosebumps

I LOVE THIS TEACHER giving these kids the gift of expression in music!!!! It makes me cry with pride for the whole group! KEEP IT UP FOR THE KIDS!!!!

She used this in her movie!

Dang, these kids sing better than I do. I sound like a dying donkey..

I love when Azaria sings but watching her sing the chorus is just as uplifting. I love how they support each other, giving high fives before the song. Just beautiful sounds and actions. What wonderful kids!!

My favorite part of the Oscars. I love the song Over the Rainbow. The enthusiasm of these 5th graders was amazing. All the movement brings the words alive. Visually and musically beautiful. Wow! What potential. Congratulations to these students' music teacher who has a heart for kids and a fantastic musical talent. Thank you for bringing these young singers to the stage. I'd love to see them there every year.

These kids are all so amazing, all their good energy just rubs off on you! Listening to them makes my day! Thank You so much for posting these videos!

This choir is awesome! I hope these kids take these experiences that they've been granted and use them as fuel to be the best they can be. I remember being in choir when I was that age into my teens, and those memories do not go away. Much kudos to the music director. Continue doing what you do, my man. It will be memembered long after we are all gone. Thanks for sharing your's and these kids' gift with us!

OMG THIS MEKES ME SOOO HAPPY, NO MORE WORDS NEEDED, NO MORE WORDS ARE THERE TO SAY ABOUT IT

When I see teachers like you, it makes me want to return to the principalship. You are defintiely operating in your zone of genius, helping these kids let their colors burst! You, and they, have so much more to let out keeping shooting for the moon -- and, as the motivational speaker Les Brown says,"you'll at least land among the stars!" PS22 you ARE a firework!

This is wonderful to see and listen to. It touches my heart and makes me cry to see so many young people in one place express such POSITIVE energy. Especially the young dark goddess in the middle, she's beautiful.Thank you for sharing this. They should all be proud...

I think this is my favourite video on the whole of RU-vid 👏I play clarinet, piano, and i'm quite selective with what i listen to as there's a lot of boring music out there-but PS22 chorus gets me right in the heart! You are all incredible and your harmony's make any song sound fantastic. When the soloist sings "baby you're a firework" that just sends amazing shock waves into my musical heart because she is so good! Keep going, music is amazing and so powerful and such a joy lifter! Fabulous to have a music teacher leading you to sing and express yourselves like that!

Home Movie scene from the Concert Movie 'Part of Me'

watching it again..!

You guys are totally AWESOME!!! I know that you know this already, but you are very fortunate to have such a talented & dedicated music teacher who loves teaching you as much as you love singing. I would like you all to know that God loves to hear you sing and he's watching over you every day because he loves you all.

iv been listning too this all day i cant stop this is probly my fav song you guys have sung :)

Love it! Gave me chills

I watched this in chorus. Me and my friends where blown away.

I love how much enthusiasm these kids have. They are so invested in the music and they're expressions and colour and just overall performances are so fun to watch. There are truly talented kids here, and I love watching you guys! Keep up the wonderful music and... Danggg great soloist! I agree w/ the person who commented (that has the highest rated comment right now) Thank you for keeping the arts alive in schools. It shows how important this kind of stuff is. Thumbs all the way up!

Got the chills watching you all sing!! So so great!

The soloist is incredible

ThIS IS a really good childrens choir!! (Not like the choirs in the "america got talent" show... they were more screaming...). And this children here, in this video, are really cute when they are singing! They enjoy it really (and they are good in it).

Your hard work, commitment and passion will take you to the moon moon moon!!!! Congrats on your success and your bright futures!!!

ohhh i got mad chills from watching this. You guys are amazing!!

0:55 goosebumps

Am I the only one who realizes this was sampled by c2c for their arcades song??

LOVE the pure joy and happiness emitted by these beautiful kids through their singing! Truly enjoy following your chorus, keep up the incredible work PS22!! A true class director! KUDOS!

I saw these guys a year ago-they have really matured -diction, cohesiveness etc. I love the way they are allowed to move-most chorus' have to be so still in their white shirts and black pants- what a way to use up that 4-5th grade energy and nerves! I love them

Who else is watching in 2017?

I remember I saw this before my graduation my teacher showed me there amazing

I could only hope that my daughter finds someone as inspiring as you to encourage her confidence. Inspiring! beautiful work guys.
