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 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10006502 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10068270 Instrumental Parts Brass . . . . . . . 29.95 10590500 P/A CD. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.95 H Praise His Holy Name—Keith Hampton.

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 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. 10457609 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.05 10291193 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 H Sure on this Shining Night— Morten Lauridsen.

Set for accompanied SATB voices (with some divisi), and now for TTBB, this is a superb composition for better choirs! 3303314 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10606833 SSAA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10083682 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 te Tongo—arr. Greg Gilpin. This traditional canoe song from Polynesia sounds very impressive with just two voice parts, hand claps, and percussion instruments. The echoing voice parts suggest people communicating from canoe to canoe as they travel between islands. The Polynesian text is simple, with a pronunciation guide. This is a refreshing change of pace in the multicultural category! 10515746 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10514270 TB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 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! 10276407 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.45 3304220 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 Ubi Caritas—Victor C. Johnson. A beautiful, tender setting of the traditional Latin text that features delicate melodic lines and a fluid accompaniment. The contrasting middle section provides interest and movement, and the echoed phrases, independent vocal lines, and limited ranges allow for it to be easily mastered for concert or festival. A pronunciation guide and translation are included. 10512921 Three-Part Mixed. . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10512922 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10512923 P/A CD. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27.95 Ht Ubi Caritas—Ola Gjeilo. Originally published for 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! 10025943 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.35 10046201 SSAA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.20 10067366 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.20 10513312 Piano Transcription for SATB Only . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8.95 He 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! 3299169 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10086103 P/A CD. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 Go to cart
