How Can I Keep from Singing?—
Greg Gilpin. Greg has taken the traditional
Quaker text and positively supercharged it with
his own gospel-styled music in this marvelous
new look at a timeless American poem. This
one has it all - a wide-open solo for your best
gospel singer, an accompaniment that's fine as
is, or can be embellished at will by your pianist,
and hand claps from the very first measure
that'll quickly spread through your audience or
congregation. Highly recommended!

Imbakwa—Jim Papoulis.
Beautifully melodic, with a great beat and a
great message, this "world music" piece has
a text in Swahili which translates as, "We have
a right." Imbakwa was written for the score
of a film about an organization benefiting
orphans in Tanzania. The organization,
called TunaHAKI, uses the arts to empower
children to have the future they deserve.
A hand-drum part is included in the choral
score. Highly recommended!

Kusimama (Stand Tall)—Jim Papoulis.
Kusimama is written in a world-music style that
is accessible for choirs, both young and old,
that are just beginning to be exposed to world
rhythms and language - a sort of introduction
to new languages, syllables, body percussion
and style. The text in both Swahili and English
is about standing tall on the earth, not with
anger or aggression, but with hope, strength,
acceptance, and positivity. The voices, along
with hand claps, stomps, djembe, shaker and
piano, all combine for an exciting world-music
presentation. Highly recommended!

O Magnum Mysterium—
Morten Lauridsen.
An exemplary
composition to display the musicianship of
better a cappella choirs, this choral opus
evokes the mystery of the Nativity with rich
melodic and harmonic colors. Emotive and
deeply fulfilling, it has become Lauridsen's
most performed work.

Omnia Sol (Let Your Heart Be Staid)—
Z. Randall Stroope.
This composition by
Z. Randall Stroope is simply too good not to
consider for your mixed or treble choir. The
composer's English text speaks to the human
need to anchor words of love and commitment
in the hearts of those who have been pillars
along life's way. Omnia sol temperat, "the sun
warms everything," comes from a verse of
Latin found in "Carmina Burana." An important
contribution to the choral literature!

Praise His Holy Name—Keith Hampton.
Captivate your choir and your audience with
this extraordinary gospel original that has
become a popular addition to concerts and
festivals nationwide. Masterfully written with all
the right ingredients, this is not an imitation, but
high-energy gospel at its finest! Electrifying!

Requiem—Craig Hella Johnson.
Singer/songwriter Eliza Gilkyson wrote
Requiem as a song of grief following the Asian
tsunami in December 2004, and the song
found a renewed audience after Hurricane
Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast region. This
setting by "Conspirare" conductor Craig Hella
Johnson has been long anticipated by choral
groups around the world and is powerful in its
emotional impact.

Riversong—Andy Beck. "River, run me to
the ocean. River, take me to the sea. River,
show me to a distant shore. River, run! Set my
spirit free..." Fluid vocal lines glide effortlessly
over a shimmering piano accompaniment
in this nature-inspired contemporary choral.
Musical quotes from familiar "river" songs
are a noteworthy surprise at the end. An
extraordinary piece! Highly recommended!

The Seal Lullaby—Eric Whitacre.
"Ah, weary wee flipperling, curl at thy ease!
The storm shall not wake thee, nor shark
overtake thee, asleep in the arms of the
slow-swinging seas..." This charming poem
by Rudyard Kipling is the inspiration for Eric
Whitacre's magnificent choral setting. A
beautiful, accessible work for choirs at the
medium level. Highly recommended!

Sing Me to Heaven—Daniel Gawthrop.
This sensitive work for SATB choir is so
beautifully ethereal it will take your breath away.
"If you would comfort me, sing me a lullaby. If
you would win my heart, sing me a love song."
Expansive while staying within the framework
of four-part harmony, it is a conductor's choice
for larger choral festivals and a superb feature
for chamber vocal ensembles.

Stand Together—Jim Papoulis. From Jim
Papoulis' Sounds of a Better World series, this
original piece should be performed with an
Irish flair that evokes a distant longing and yet
is very hopeful in the present. The beginning
of the song is gentle and soothing; gradually,
the energy starts to increase, leading up to
the refrain, "If we stand together, we will sing
forever of the dreams growing in our hearts..."

Sure on this Shining Night—
Morten Lauridsen.
"Sure on this shining night
of starmade shadows round, kindness must
watch for me this side the ground..." In this
third movement of his song cycle Nocturnes,
Morten Lauridsen's flowing music captures
all of the beauty and wonder of James Agee's
poem. Set for accompanied SATB voices (with
some divisi), and now for TTBB, this is a superb
composition for better choirs!

True Light—Keith Hampton.
Opening phrases of the traditional spiritual This
Little Light of Mine launch this exciting work
into Keith Hampton's original words and music,
which feature a sixteen-measure soprano solo
sung to lines from tenth-century poet Grigor
Narekatzi's Book of Mournful Chants: "Don't let
the light that You've given me die, And don't
desert my mind. But let the one who serves
You Praise You again and again." The repeated
responses "He lives in us as True Light" and
"God gave the world True Light" give solid
impact to every phrase. School and church
choirs will revel in the spiritual depth and driving
rhythmic feel of this extraordinarily soulful choral!

Tshotsholoza (Go Forward)—
Jeffery L. Ames.
Now available for mixed or
men's voices, this rousing arrangement of the
popular African freedom song has become a
standard in the choral repertoire. With call-and-
response vocals, African text, and rhythmic
percussion accompaniment, it transports the
listener to South Africa, where the song is
often referred to as the "unofficial anthem" of
the country. It was used in the soundtrack of
the Oscar-nominated movie "Invictus," and
served as South Africa's "battle call" at the
2010 World Cup. This is essential multicultural
programming! Highly recommended!

Ubi Caritas—Ola Gjeilo. Originally published
for mixed voices, this stunning work has
reached a large audience in a very short time,
and has been published in SSAA and TTBB
voicings as well, to meet the growing demand.
The reviews are in — it is an exceptionally
strong choice for every a cappella choir!

Wanting Memories—Yasaye M.
Barnwell.
"I am sitting here wanting memories
to teach me to see the beauty in the world
through my own eyes..." As recorded by
Sweet Honey in the Rock, this extraordinary
a cappella piece speaks to everyone of the
precious gift of life.
