My Very Own
Susan LaBarr.
Lovely melodic lines over equally lovely harmonic textures which
include some cluster harmonies paired with passages about love make
this a memorable work for both the singers and the audience. The
flowing piano accompaniment adds much to the musical texture and
timbre of the work. Highly recommended!

Rain Music
Victor C. Johnson.
This forward-moving, rhythmically driven music enhances the dramatic,
image-laden text of Kentucky-born poet and playwright Joseph S.
Cotter, Jr. Shifting mixed meter is very effective in giving this selection
a dance-like quality. Close harmonies, especially in the contrasting
middle section, and effective unison, two-, three- and four-part writing
throughout heighten the musical effect. Optional parts for rain stick
and djembe.

San'bonani/Namhla Kudibene
Michael Barrett.
A typical greeting in the Zulu culture, this arrangement is written with
the call-and-response technique so strongly associated with traditional
South African music. The soloists can be male or female and can
take their time when performing their parts. The response from the
choir "Hololo hololo" is jubilant and may contain ululating and other
traditional African noises. Simple hand gestures and waving towards
the audience is appropriate. This is a perfect opener and an opportunity
for a choir to be walking among the audience as they welcome them.

Shout unto God
Heather Sorenson.
A fanfare-like choral setting for SATB chorus with divisi, this sacred
text from the Psalms sparkles with fresh harmonies in a dynamic
modern setting. A cappella throughout, with an optional part for
string bass and triangle, this arrangement is an enthralling choral
statement appropriate for the concert stage or worship service.
Highly recommended!

Let All the World in Every Corner Sing
(Antiphon from "Five Mystical Songs")
Ralph Vaughan Williams/arr. Craig Courtney.
A stunning, 4-hand-accompanied setting of the George Herbert/Ralph
Vaughan Williams classic, adapted and edited by Craig Courtney.
The masculine energy of Vaughan Williams song of praise makes it
particularly adaptable for men's choir. You will find it very effective as a
concert opener or closer.

A bright, jubilant song of welcome! All God's children will be moving
to the rhythm of this multicultural original, which incorporates Swahili
text and percussion parts for shaker, djembe and congas. A cappella,
vocally accessible and repetitive in all the right ways, this fun-to-
sing statement of unity is perfect for both the concert stage or the
worship service.

Linden Lea
Ralph Vaughan Williams/arr. Larry Shackley.
This popular Vaughan Williams vocal solo has been transformed into
a delightful concert or contest title for two-part men's groups. The
original vocal line has been enhanced with delightful counterpoint and
harmonic shadings carrying the descriptive lyrics through three verses.
Destined to become a repertoire standard!

The Lonely Carnarvon
arr. Charles McCartha.
This tender setting of a tuneful Welsh folk song, a lament of love
now lost, features comfortable ranges in all parts and an artful piano
accompaniment with optional cello. "Soft winds of evening your
sweet name are sighing, shyly the stars seek your sweet face in vain.
No more we roam by the hillside together. Will we ever walk steep
Carnarvon again?" Simply lovely!

Lunar Lullaby
Jacob Narverud.
Beautiful, lush choral harmonies, soaring melodies, and a supportive
piano accompaniment that offers constant motion and contrast to the
choral parts set off an imaginative text that tells of the "celestial child"
in the stars. This challenging yet accessible and beautifully crafted
piece will be a superb addition to any choral library. Sure to become
a classic!

Magnisondele Nkosi Yam
Michael Barrett.
This piece is a traditional praise and worship song from the Zulu
culture and is written in the isicathamiya style - a cappella singing with
close harmonies - that originated among Zulu mine workers during
the apartheid years. Two soloists open the piece with a call followed
by response from the choir. Dramatic and powerful, the piece builds
throughout with an exciting rhythmic section at its center. The title
translates to "Be nearer my Lord." A translation and pronunciation
guide are provided.
