Transcontinental Music, the UAHC Department of Religious Living & 
Synagogue Music, and the Department of Education invite you to submit 
musical material for inclusion in a new publication to be entitled, The 
Complete Jewish Songbook for Children: Manginot, Volume II.  A decade 
has passed since Transcontinental Music published Manginot: 201 
Songs for Jewish Schools.  It continues to serve as a valuable resource in 
our Religious Schools for teaching music and Jewish concepts. This new 
volume will be a companion book to update and expand upon the first 
volume.
We are especially looking for the following: 

¯       New, creative, and teachable music for students in pre-school & in 
grades K - 8 for both formal and informal settings.  Songs should seek to 
impart Jewish values, concepts, observances, or texts 
¯       Music that will coordinate with the three-pronged focus (Torah, 
Avodah 
G?milut Chasadim) of the Chai Core Curriculum currently being developed 
by the UAHC Department of Education  for grades 2-7. To learn more 
about the Chai Curriculum see www.uahc.org/educate/chai/index.shtml 
¯       Music for the worship experiences in our Religious SchoolsThe 
deadline for submission of music is March 3, 2003. An editorial 
committee made up of rabbis, cantors, educators, and music specialists 
will review all submissions. We invite you to send us music you have 
composed or music written by others that you think should appear in the 
volume. Please send sheet music, recordings are not necessary.  Please 
send all submissions to:
