Library" status, and others are destined to join their ranks as they
continue to suit the needs of choral directors year aer year!
He Al Shlosha D'varim—Allan Naplan.
Al Shlosha D'varim is a lyrical setting of an
essential maxim from Jewish morality laws,
translated to mean: "The world is sustained
by three things: by truth, by justice, and by
peace." Available for SA or mixed voices
and piano, this has become a standard in
the choral repertoire.

He Bonse Aba—arr. Victor C. Johnson.
Sizzling with celebratory rhythmic energy,
this African folksong loosely translates as:
"Those who sing have the right to be called
the children of God." The only accompanying
instruments are hand drum (treble drum),
djembe (bass drum), and shaker, which
add authentic flavor and opportunities for
improvisation. The vocal parts are easily
learned due to their repetition and call-and-
response style.

Ht Bonse Aba (Traditional Zambian
Song)—arr. Andrew Fischer. Here is an
exuberant a cappella number that's loaded
with African atmosphere! The traditional
Zambian words are sung throughout with
such a buoyant, rhythmic feel that you
are transported into the center of a native
celebration. The lyric translates as "All that sing
have the right to be called the children of God."
The song is brief, but may be repeated as
many times as desired. Various voicing options
are possible, and African percussion may be
added as the piece progresses. Your choir will
definitely want to improvise some celebratory
whoops and shouts!

H Can You Hear?—Jim Papoulis &
Francisco Nunez. "Can you hear my cries?
I am calling out to you." The global community
of children speaks together in this dramatic call
for a better future that uses worldbeat sounds,
unified chordal harmonies, and occasional
solos for a stunning effect. This is an inspiring
way to close your concert or festival, or to set a
tone for a dynamic new beginning for a season
of music-making.

How fun to sing about one of nature's most

Ht Earth Song—Frank Ticheli. A cry for peace
in a world torn by war, this poignant a cappella
setting of an original text is filled with striking
dynamic contrasts. "Sing, Be, Live, See...
This dark stormy hour, the wind, it stirs. The
scorched earth cries out in vain... But music
and singing have been my refuge, and music
and singing shall be my light..."

e Eatnemen Vuelie (Song of the Earth)—
Frode Fjellheim/arr. Emily Crocker.
The opening musical number from the Disney
animated feature "Frozen," this song is inspired
by indigenous Saami and Norwegian culture, a
combination of Saami yoiking and the Danish
Christmas hymn Dejlig er jorden, or Fairest
Lord Jesus, by B.S. Ingemann. Yoik is a very
old vocal tradition among the Saami people of
Scandinavia and Russia, characterized by short
melodic phrases that repeat again and again,
with small variations. With English, German and
Norwegian versions of the text, synthesizer,
percussion and optional male yoik.
