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! 10308964 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10296741 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 4 Kuwa Furaha—Jim Papoulis. Kuwa Furaha is a song about joy. More specifically, it is about the simple and beautiful way that children have of showing and expressing their joy. Jim Papoulis is well known for his world music style of writing. This rhythmic, energetic song, using a Swahili text and djembe, will be quickly learned - your singers will ask for it at every rehearsal! Highly recommended! 10429701 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 H Let Everything that Hath Breath—Jeffery L. Ames. It is impossible not to be inspired by this soul-stirring gospel original. The accompaniment is rock solid, and the choral parts are incredibly gutsy, with dramatic dynamic swells and accents that will shake the rafters! "Magnify the Lord with me and exalt His name together...Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord!" 10017215 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 4e Let the Saints Get Up and Sing—Joel Raney. A short medley of two spirituals that packs a lot of punch, yet is still appropriate for various services or programs. Joel Raney masterfully segues between When the Saints Go Marching In and In That Great Gettin' Up Morning. Fun, exciting, and highly recommended! 10454764 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10454765 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 4 Let There Be Peace on Earth—Craig Courtney. Few songs ever composed have had the breadth of appeal as this iconic text and melody which celebrates its 60th year in 2015. The cry for "peace on earth" is undoubtedly a timeless one, and Craig Courtney's setting unites vocalists and instrumentalists of all ages. Revisit this melody in your church or concert hall with this monumental setting during the Christmas season, at memorial services, or at patriotic events for a completely unforgettable experience. 10458773 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10460744 Instrumental Parts String Quartet . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20.00 10458774 Orchestration . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 80.00 n No Time—Susan Brumfield.

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. 1985530 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 He 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! 10006501 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10006502 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10068270 Instrumental Parts Brass . . . . . 29.95 H Ose Shalom (The One Who Makes Peace)— John Leavitt. This timely text from the Jewish liturgy is brilliantly set in a lovely original work by John Leavitt. Its simple message of peace is enhanced with soaring melodies and lyric instrumental lines, making it a strong choice as a multicultural or a Hanukkah feature. Very highly recommended! 3295478 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 3295479 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 3295480 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 3295481 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 3295482 Instrumental Parts . . . . . . . . . . 25.00 H Oye (Listen!)—Jim Papoulis/ed. Nunez. Full of life and energy, this work in Spanish and English expresses the plea of Mexican children to the rest of the world to listen to their cry for help. The percussion and bass parts (included in the score) really make it percolate from beginning to end, and the performance notes make it easy to pronounce and understand the Spanish. Now available for treble and mixed voices, this is a very cool multicultural feature with an important message for today's world. Highly recommended! 10030085 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 3301378 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 10001346 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 22.95 H The Pasture—Z. Randall Stroope. Robert Frost's elegant poetry harkens to a simpler time and Randall Stroope's choral setting is both lush and expressive. Clear vocal lines and rich harmonies sing beautifully over a supportive accompaniment, while the meter changes at the slower tempo give the work a freedom in line and motion. Masterfully done. 3205069 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.75 10299426 Instrumental Parts . . . . . . . . . . 50.00 H 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! 3168358 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.65 3295179 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.65 3168358C Choral Master Track . . . . . . . . . 4.99 Ht Prayer of the Children—Kurt Bestor/arr. Klouse. An important contribution to today's choral repertoire, this deeply moving tribute to the children of Bosnia was given national and international prominence with Weston Noble and the Luther College Nordic Choir. It will be a stunning concert feature for your a cappella choir. 3032307 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 3032315 TTBB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.85 3283322 SSAA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 n 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. 10045096 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 H The Road Home—Stephen Paulus.

A very rhythmic work, with rapid articulations, this is an exciting showcase for a cappella choirs. Written by a well-known Brazilian composer, it has a distinctive Latin American feeling that will really light a fire under your singers! 5318514 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.75 3128758 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.75 n 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! 10058221 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10070521 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10279943 TTBB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 Ht Set Me as a Seal—Rene Clausen.
