Jodi Benson Lends Her Voice To Save Music Program!

Have you and your children ever dreamed of seeing Jodi Benson, the voice of Ariel, sing live? 

That dream came true for the lucky students of Mosaic Preparatory Academy, a PreK-6 public elementary school located in the heart of East Harlem in New York City. Broadway Inspirational Voices (BIV) recently helped save Mosaic's music department and Jodi Benson lent her voice to the cause. 

Jodi and BIV are both supporters of music in school and recognize the importance of the arts in a well rounded curriculum. Please take a look at the featurette below. The students sign “Part of Your World” as Jodi sings to celebrate music in school and the recent Blu-ray release of The Little Mermaid: Diamond Edition.
