A treasure trove of traditional and original songs in Spanish and English from many countries, the nineteen interactive tracks include the title song, Tingaleyo; La pulga/The flea mart; Jorge/ Georgie; La punta y el tacón/The Point and the Heel, Una luna brilla/One Moon Shines; Día/Day-o; and more crowd-pleasers for all ages. Their daughter Genevieve, an Arcata Arts Institute graduate, is the graphic artist of the cover and inserts to Tingaleyo, and son Matthew, a film director/editor, is technical consultant. This award-winning team has produced five other albums for children, featuring Monet’s pure vocals, lush harmonies, rhythmic guitars and dancing percussion: the Parents' Choice Gold Award winner and best-seller Circle Time, songs and rhymes for the very young; Jump Down, more songs and rhymes; My Best Friend, with the Redwood Coast Children’s Chorus; Christmas Pie, with renowned children's choral director Kathe Lyth; and Chiqui Chiqui Cha, songs and rhymes in Spanish. Hailed by Billboard Magazine as one of the “Five Leading Ladies of Children’s Music” Lisa Monet inspires both children and adults with traditional and original songs brimming with enthusiasm for life and friendship. Her style reflects an extensive performance career: classical, folk, rock, and Latin ensembles, from university halls in Spain to the Troubador in Los Angeles, and shared billing with Norton Buffalo, Ella Jenkins, James Cotton and many others. A native Californian and multi-credentialed teacher, she has lived, studied and performed in Argentina, Spain, and Mexico. A best-selling artist with Music for Little People for twenty years, Monet along with St. Charles is now with the independent label Circle Sound Productions and re-issuing earlier albums.
