rhythmic setting propels the angular melodies forward. The
contrasting, lyric B section allows for a brief respite and will challenge

Dies Irae (from "Requiem")
Michael John Trotta.
Pulsating rhythmic ostinatos, cluster harmonies, and soaring
soprano lines are all present in this exciting a cappella concert work,
possessing all the elements you'd expect from the composer of Veni,
Veni Emmanuel. Based on the 13th-century Dies Irae chant, the
exciting minor texture contrasts driving rhythms and beautiful legato
singing while still remaining accessible. A perfect way to showcase
your choir as a concert opener, closer, or for festival use.

Abandon
Z. Randall Stroope.
In this stunning work, sweeping melodic lines and at times unexpected
harmonies envelop a text from Rainer Maria Rilke translated into
English. Beautifully depicting the text, the lines allow for the rise and
fall of the phrases, and with a few spots for solo voices, the harmonic
texture shimmers with sensitivity. It is a wonderful concert selection for
more advanced choirs.

After the Rain
Sarah Quartel.
Setting words by Chief Dan George, this optimistic work reminds
us that there is still beauty to be found in times of trouble and that
difficult days will not last forever. This sensitive setting uses triplets
against duplets to give a sense of fluidity to the melodic phrasing.

Aia la 'o Pele i Hawai'i
Jace Kaholokulu Saplan.
Based on a traditional Hawaiian chant with original music, this rousing
work for advanced treble choirs brings all the drama of a volcanic
eruption normally associated with destruction. But in Hawai'ian
culture, Pele - the goddess of volcanos and fire - also evokes awe and
veneration. Layered ostinato patterns and dramatic divisi harmonies,
along with the use of the Ipu, a Hawaiian percussion instrument,
create an exciting experience!

Be Thou My Vision
arr. Kyle Pederson.
This simple but lovely reimagining of the iconic hymn features a
gentle syncopation of the familiar SLANE melody. The text, while
similar to the traditional, has a more socially responsive slant that will
be appropriate for worship, school, or concert. Optional oboe or C
instrument adds lovely tone color.

Breathe
Coleman Peterson.
Drawing on our shared humanity, this original work from new
composer Peterson encourages us to confront the isolationism that's
becoming prevalent in our world due to so many crises, fears, and
uncertainty and instead revel in the simple beauty of just being
together to breathe and live. Featuring the inner voices with altos
carrying the melody throughout, the warm a cappella divisi texture
invites both singers and listeners in to take part in a breathtaking
musical experience. Stunning!
