Concert Selections
4e Shout Allelu!—Roger Emerson. "Celebrate,
celebrate! Shout! Shout! Shout!" This exciting
original will be equally effective for holiday or
general concert performances. The rhythmic
underlay gives it a colorful, effervescent quality
that will energize your singers! With or without
percussion, it is a great piece to start off the
school year for middle school or intermediate high
school choirs! Highly recommended!

Ht 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.

l Sing to Me—Andrea Ramsey. "Sing to me!
Something of sunlight and bloom..." An uplifting
text by Ella Wheeler Wilcox is set to charming
music in this wonderful piece with melodic
interest in all parts and conservative ranges.
Ramsey's sensitive, skillful writing makes for
tender moments that truly evoke the meaning of
the text. Now available for mixed voices, this has
long been a favorite with festival choirs in the two-
part version.

spirituals from the pen of William Dawson, this
remains consistently popular year after year!

H 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..."

Ht The Star Spangled Banner—arr. Russ
Robinson. This full-sounding, "no-frills" a cappella
setting of our national anthem will come in handy
on many occasions for years to come. A very
practical, straightforward arrangement that will be
easy to prepare and inspiring to perform! This is a
must in every choral library!

H The Storm Is Passing Over—Charles Albert
Tindley/arr. Barbara W. Baker. This is a lot of fun!
Even choirs with limited experience singing gospel
music will be able to perform the syncopated
and heavily accented vocal parts with ease. The
final repeated chorus features stunning dynamic
contrasts, hand claps and a dramatic ritard before
the final ending. A very strong choice!

H 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!

He Take Me to the Water—arr. Rollo Dilworth. The
traditional spirituals Down by the Riverside and
Wade in the Water are joined with the original Take
Me to the Water to create a gospel-style choral
that packs a triple punch! This is exceptionally
well done! Highly recommended!

4e There is Peace—Jim Papoulis. The essence
of this work, in a world of conflict and violence,
is the need for a deep understanding that peace
can come from all of us. After the opening phrase,
"Look in the eyes of the children, feel the touch of
their hands, there is peace," the verse enters, with
a full, yet still gentle sound. The refrain is more
celebratory, followed by a quiet bridge and an
ending which is calm and introspective, much like
the opening.

n Three Quotes by Mark Twain—Andrea
Ramsey. This delightfully provocative piece for
treble voices is based on three very short, witty
texts by Mark Twain: The Silent Fool; Telling the
Truth and My Dear Mother. The music changes
with each short section, moving from ragtime to
a waltz and finally to the blues. Great fun for all!
10080294 SA or Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95
H 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!

t 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!

n Tundra—Charles A. Silvestri & Ola Gjeilo.
Majestic scenes from Ola Gjeilo's native
Norway inspired Charles Silvestri's text for this
contemporary tone poem. The words and music
are fused in a poignant, lyrical way to convey the
intense beauty of the landscape. An excellent
winter feature or festival choice for mature
women's choirs.

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!

t Wana Baraka—arr. Shawn L. Kirchner. This
upbeat Kenyan folk song is a popular choice

extensive rhythmic play on the word "alleluya."

t 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.

H When I Close My Eyes—Jim Papoulis &
Francisco Nunez. "When I close my eyes then
I can see that I am not afraid." This song of
confidence and hope for young voices resonates
with positive lyrics, a strong melody and an
expressive accompaniment for piano and cello.
Written in ABA form, the message is enhanced
with the contrasting middle section that is a clear
declaration of belief in oneself. An enriching choral
statement that we recommend very highly!

4e You'll Never Walk Alone (with Climb Ev'ry
Mountain)—Rodgers & Hammerstein/arr. Mark
Hayes. Two of Rodgers and Hammerstein's
most beloved songs are powerfully set together
in a combo of great emotion and strength.
Whether performing with the exquisite piano
accompaniment, full orchestral parts, or
accompaniment track, your choir will stir every
heart in the audience, and bring them to their
feet in applause. With opportunities for solos,
it's a fantastic finale selection for mixed and
women's choirs.

H Zion's Walls—Aaron Copland/arr. Koponen.
The memorable melody from Copland's "Promise
of Living" will be recognized by all in this revivalist
song. This arrangement takes the masterwork and
makes it attainable by any size and caliber choir.
It has very little divisi, great vocal ranges and a
supportive piano accompaniment. Impressive in
concert or festival settings. Don't miss it!
