This is the perfect feature for middle school boys! The lyrics, based on a poem by James Barton Adams, glamorize the life of a cowboy while the music supports the voices and lays down a solid, riding beat. There are plenty of short solos to go around, and the simple chorus will produce a full, masculine sound. "I sleep beneath the star light and I think of a pretty gal/With the golden hair who is waiting there at the bars of the home corral." 10583533 TTB or TB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 Crawdad Song arr. John Leavitt. Accessible voice parts coupled with hand claps and toe taps help create this lively, energized arrangement of an American folk song favorite. Call- and-response phrases with contrary motion and terraced dynamics provide interesting variety in vocal textures. Enhance the fun piano accompaniment by including the xylophone and string bass parts. This piece is a terrific choice for festivals, fall or spring concerts, and end-of-year performances. 10602828 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 Danny Boy arr. Trevor Gomes. This a cappella setting of Danny Boy by Trevor Gomes is unique and lovely. Following a stark opening, the piece grows in richness and vocal parts, with stirring harmonies and a graceful conclusion. Truly a sumptuous setting of this beloved folk song. Appropriate for fine high school choirs, college and community choirs. 10597454 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.35 Danny Boy arr. Mark Hayes. Only Mark Hayes could write such an enthralling arrangement of this timeless Irish air. Scored for voices, piano, flute, and optional percussion, it features a shimmering accompaniment and a flute obbligato with touches of Celtic ornamentation. Expressive at every turn, yet understated when needed, the setting culminates in a touching pianissimo restatement of the melody. Now available for mixed, treble and male voices. 3251667 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.95 3251675 SAB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.95 3251683 SSAA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.95 10604292 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00 10604292E TTBB ePrint . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00 3251691 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27.99 A Day of Joyful Singing Donald Moore. Here is a superb easy original madrigal for developing voices, with optional piano, optional baritone, a happy text and plenty of "fa la la" passages. Faithful to the madrigal style of the 16th and early 17th centuries, this has great educational and performance value. Highly recommended! 10586915 Three-Part Mixed . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 A Day Upon the Sea Victor C. Johnson. Of the many sea-themed pieces available for male voices, this original is definitely one of the best. It's a vibrant, melodically-driven setting of a seafaring poem by Allan Cunningham, with comfortable ranges for both tenor and bass parts. The stylistic piano part adds solid support throughout this robust work. Your guys will love it! "Oh, give to me a flowing sea, and a wind that follows fast, and fills the white and rustling sail and bends the gallant mast..." 10590277 TB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 Chiri Bim Chiri Bam arr. David Neches. Mixed ensembles of all sizes will enjoy singing Chiri Bim Chiri Bam, a Jewish folk song popular all over the world. The text is mostly in Hebrew (pronunciation guide included), and the title refrain is tons of fun to sing as it undergoes delightful melodic variations in all the parts. Highly recommended! 10586709 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 Clap Your Hands Together David Rasbach. This spirited original, based on Psalm 98, is a wonderful festival piece, a rousing invitation to make a joyful noise unto the Lord. "Clap your hands together, all you people; worship God with one accord. Sing His praise together, all you people; lift your voices to the Lord!" Highly recommended! 10606999 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10607000 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10607001 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 Come, Gentle Night Jonny Priano. A supportive accompaniment is the foundation for uncomplicated choral writing in this dramatic setting of Shakespeare's text from "Romeo and Juliet." Beautifully rich and moving! 10604299 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 Composers All Around Andy Beck & Mark Burrows. What a fantastic way to teach the names of famous composers! This ingenious little piece uses tunes from three traditional rounds to teach the names of master composers throughout music history. It's so much fun to sing the names in rhythm, learning has never been such a delightful experience!

Russell Robinson. This motet was originally written for three-part women's voices. Here it has been adapted for mixed voices, one step lower in key, and with a piano part that is more than just a reduction of the voice parts. Perform the work a cappella as a true motet, or with the piano accompaniment, to give your choir a good taste of this Italian Baroque masterwork. 10585378 SAB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 Connected Brian Tate. "I am you are me..." This innovative original uses a clever text and pop-style music to create an environment of togetherness among members of the choir. Community - that's what it's all about. Each vocal part gets its own statement, and all are sequenced together into a rollicking chorus, all a cappella, all fun! Complete with finger snaps and hand claps, this will be a hit with your high school singers! 10602876 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.35
