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..." 10012627 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10029708 SSAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10013045 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 n Stodola Pumpaarr.

Look no further for that unique multicultural programming gem - Gilpin's setting of this Middle Eastern folk song is bright, fun and flirtatious! The text, in classic Arabic, tells the story of a traveling salesman selling Indian muslin, taffeta, and other pretty material and wares for women to purchase. The Arabic is repetitive, easily learned, and helps fuel the rhythmic feel of the melody and overall style of the piece. A pronunciation guide and translation are provided, along with helpful performance notes. 10602831 Three-Part Mixed . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10602832 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 Ht Tambur (Old Hungarian Dancing Song)arr.

"Be quiet, be still, listen and hear, far away a voice is calling" is the translation of this original work that evokes the wonder and beauty of the country of South Africa. The gentle declaration of the text, with subtle movement, background drum and rich harmony, portrays the dignity and culture of the music and the people. 10564842 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 n Ton TheJeanne & Robert Gilmore/arr.

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!

Advanced choirs will enjoy adding the optional descant for an exciting finish! 10602972 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 4t Tumekuja Kuimba (We Have Come to Sing!) Lynn Zettlemoyer. This vibrant, percussive original a cappella work uses both Swahili and English text to create a dynamic multicultural feature that works great as an opener or processional.
