Okay, I ran across this little gem back in June and have been saving it for a Monday in October!
Jon Cozart is a YouTuber, gaining fame from his video “After Ever After” (a Disney parody) on his YouTube channel “Paint.” For this video he combined his already stunning vocal talents with the seasoned vocal talents of Voctave! For this Halloween mashup they combined “Grim Grinning Ghosts” (written by the Buddy Baker) from the Haunted Mansion and “This is Halloween” (written by Danny Elfman) from The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Enjoy this fabulous mash up from some of my all time favorite YouTubers 🙂

Today’s Musical Monday selection is from the group “Voctave.” I have written about them several times (because they’re AMAZING!!!!). This video is an a cappella arrangement of the “Stampede” scene from the musical the Lion King. I got chills several times as I watched this! Wow wow wow! Enjoy!
Here is the original track from the movie. I think they hit the nail on the head, and I can’t get over those incredible harmonies.

Okay, most of you out in “Cyberland” do not know me personally, so let me tell you a little bit about myself.
First of all, I LOVE DISNEY (… like duh, I have a blog called Confessions of a Mouskaholic, so I guess that was a given…) It might be more than loving Disney, in fact, some might call it obsession.
Next, I am a full time music teacher in Ohio. I teach 7th through 12th grade choir and general music in a suburban school district. I went to Kent State University (Go Golden Flashes!) for instrumental music education, but my certification is K-12 any music. My dream was to be a band director, but here I am 10 years into my teaching career and I’ve taught choir for 7 of them and love it. While that it something I never thought I’d say 15 years ago, here I stand teaching choir and really truly loving it.
Third, I am passionate about music, especially A Capella music. I think that those who can sing A Capella and do it well are so so talented. Just my opinion here, but A Capella musicians and groups are FAR more talented than those who can sing and dance to an auto-tuned track. These groups display true talent and musicianship and don’t rely on gimmicks to sound amazing. It’s raw talent.
Lastly, and this is important for today’s post in particular, I LOVE the group Pentatonix. They are my favorite A Capella group. They got their start on NBC’s show “The Sing Off” where they won season three. They’ve become increasingly popular especially with their Christmas albums. To me they’re fantastic all year round and I love seeing what they have done and where they’re going. (I was fortunate enough to see them perform live in my home town in September 2015 and WOW what a great show!!!)
So without further ado, I would like to share today’s Musical Monday selection. This is the Disney Love Medley, featuring Kirstin Maldonado (from Pentatonix) & Jeremy Michael Lewis as the lead singers and the group Voctave singing the BEAUTIFUL soaring harmony! If you’re not convinced of how amazing this is (which you should be after about 5 seconds) wait for the last two chords… WOW is all I can say!
(P.S.- If you didn’t already think this was beautiful and adorable, Kirsten and Jeremy are dating!!! How cute!)
(P.S.S.- This is a completely separate group, but if you think they’re awesome be sure to check out the Voices of Liberty at the American Pavilion at Epcot. Many of the members of Voctave are also in Voices of Liberty at Epcot!)
