l All of Us (from "Considering Matthew Shep-
ard")—Craig Hella Johnson. Described as "brill-
iant" and "heartfelt," this is the final movement
of Craig Hella Johnson's epic work "Considering
Matthew Shepard," a tribute to the young gay
man who has become an American icon and a
symbol for hope and redemption. With elements
of hymnody, American folk, and gospel music,
this single movement will allow mixed choruses
everywhere to come to understand and be lifted
up by this powerful music.

4 Amazing—Pinkzebra. An upbeat, inspirational
song about living life to the fullest, enjoying
life's adventures, and seizing the day. The pop-
styled vocal harmonies and singable melodies
pair with the positive lyrics for a song that your
choirs will not soon forget. Perfect for graduation
ceremonies and concert programs! Supplemental
instrument parts are now available for a live
band accompaniment option. An instrumental
performance recording bundled with a piano-only
rehearsal accompaniment track is available.

tL Ave Generosa—Ola Gjeilo. This setting of
Hildegard von Bingen's Ave Generosa text uses
a hauntingly joyful tonality, paying homage to
the mysterious story of Mary. A beautiful middle
section is surrounded by contrasting modal
beginning and ending sections. The juxtaposition
of sustained and moving moments holds true to
the composer's style, while the harmonic structure
and vocal construction offer very fresh textures.
Highly recommended!

t Connected—Brian Tate. "I am you are me..."
This innovative original uses a clever text and
pop-style music to create an environment of
togetherness among members of the choir.
Community - that's what it's all about. Each
vocal part gets its own statement, and all
are sequenced together into a rollicking chorus,
all a cappella, all fun! Complete with finger snaps
and hand claps, this will be a hit with your high
school singers!
10602876 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.45
n Count the Stars—Andy Beck. A poignant
original English text combined with Latin phrases
from the Requiem Mass lays the foundation
for this tender song of remembrance. Deeply
emotive musically, with exquisite lyricism, this
piece was commissioned by the classmates of a
high school student who passed away to honor
his memory. Contemporary cluster chords,
beautifully sculpted phrases, and expressive
dynamics leave the listener with a sense of awe
and wonder.
10751916 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.05
n Dance for Love—Z. Randall Stroope. Set to a
Civil War poem, we are implored to "dance for
beauty, dance for laughter, dance for love - soft
falls the rain, bare feet dance me home" in this
delightful and charming composition. Lovely
piano accompaniment adds to and supports the
voices. Wonderful opportunity to explore lyrical
singing, phrasing and mixed meters in this very
accessible work.
10661653 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 2.10
4L Days of Beauty—Ola Gjeilo. Though it appears on
his celebrated Winter Songs album, this haunting
new work for treble choirs will be a beautiful
addition to your program at any time of year. The
setting of an Emily Bronte text features a spinning
piano accompaniment and a lush, connective part
for optional string quartet. Long, lyrical phrases
give the opportunity to showcase tone and blend,
and the stunning harmonic texture completes the
beautiful picture to perfection. Gorgeous!
10849156 SSAA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.85
n Deep Peace I Send to You—Douglas E.
Wagner. "Deep peace of a soft white dove to you;
Deep peace of a quiet rain; Deep peace of the
ebbing wave to you. Deep peace I send to you."
This incredibly beautiful and heartrending setting
of a precious text by William Sharp makes an
especially effective concert closer or encore. The
gorgeous harmonic structure begins with a quiet
section that gradually unfolds into a full choral
statement appropriate to this inspirational text.
Highly recommended!

L Even When He Is Silent—Kim Andre Arnesen.
Commissioned by the St. Olaf Festival in
Trondheim, Norway, Even When He Is Silent
masterfully expresses the sentiment of the text -
hope in times of despair. Beautifully melodic, with
rich harmonic texture, this is a stunning work for
better a cappella choirs! "I believe in the sun even
when it is not shining..."
10882573 TTBB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 2.85
n Fresh and Fearless—Daniel Elder. A poem by
Sara Teasdale is the inspiration for this light, airy
work. It appropriately conveys the springtime
theme of the text, with a driving piano part that
evokes the energy and wonder of new beginnings.
"The spring is fresh and fearless and every leaf is
new, the world is brimmed with moonlight, the lilac
brimmed with dew..."
10593345 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . MA 2.95
Ht Good Night, Dear Heart—Dan Forrest. This
stunning piece is based on a simple poem by
Robert Richardson, inscribed on the headstone
of the daughter of Samuel Clemens (Mark
Twain), who died in her youth. Appropriate
for any memorial occasion, the work is brief
and understated, yet powerful. A cappella with
optional piano accompaniment. It will touch every
listener deeply. Highly recommended!

4 Goodnight Moon—Eric Whitacre. Originally
composed for solo soprano, Whitacre has
adapted the tender, whimsical setting of the iconic
children's book by Margaret Wise Brown for mixed
choir. The harmonic structure is transparent and
envelops the melody line in a peaceful, serene
setting that creates an emotive soundscape.
Stunning!
10941806 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 3.10
4 Hold Fast to Dreams—Susan LaBarr. This very
accessible piece pairs a beautifully written vocal
and piano score with the Langston Hughes poem
that warns us to "Hold fast to dreams... for when
dreams go, life is a barren field frozen with snow."
Originally scored for SATB, it is now available for
SSA. Perfect for graduation or any event where
you want to inspire.
