But music and singing have been my refuge, and music and singing shall be my light..." 10027720 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.70 n The Ground (Pleni sunt caeli)—Ola Gjeilo.

Adapted from the gospel-style interpretation of the hymn His Eye Is on the Sparrow, originally performed and recorded by the Georgia Mass Choir, this setting has been lowered a step and a bass part has been added. It will be an inspirational choice for gospel and concert choirs, and audience participation on the hand claps is encouraged! 10451977 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 H J'entends Le Moulin—arr. Emily Crocker. Hear the steady sound of the mill wheel in this brisk setting of the French Canadian folk ong, which uses alternate French and English text. "I hear the windmill, tick-a tick-a tack-a..." Use the pronunciation guide on the inside cover or the Teaching P/A CD to practice the French lyrics. This is easy and fun to sing! 10030298 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10030299 Teaching P/A CD . . . . . . . . 22.99 n Jubilate Deo—Peter Anglea. This superb setting of the traditional Latin text from Psalm 100 fairly dances off the page in joy! Singable, natural- sounding mixed meter, a memorable melodic line, and a buoyant feel throughout make this one of the most appealing and musically satisfying works you will hear. Highly recommended! 10445795 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 H Keep Your Lamps—Andre Thomas. This exciting spiritual, with accompaniment for high, medium and low conga drums, is an unusually appealing number for a wide variety of uses from smaller choirs through massed choir performances. 1428499 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.70 H Let Everything that Hath Breath— Jeffery L. Ames. It is impossible not to be inspired by this soul-stirring gospel original.

"Magnify the Lord with me and exalt His name together... Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord!" 10017215 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 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 10006501E SATB ePrint . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10006502 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10006502E SSA ePrint . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10068270 Instrumental Parts Brass. . 29.95 10068270E Instru.

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 H Requiem—Eliza Gilkyson/arr. 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 perennial favorite with festival choirs, this exceptional work has become a standard in the repertoire. 8069226 SATB with Soprano Solo . . 1.99 10055133 SSAA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.99 10318244 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.99 H 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 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. 1778844 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00 3302085 SSAA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00 3057700 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00 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! 3303314 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10083682 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 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! 3700850 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 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! 10276407 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.15 3304220 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 Ht Ubi Caritas—Ola Gjeilo.
