soprano and figured bass, while this new choral
adaptation offers a counter melody in the second

HL Lord of the Dance—arr. John Rutter. With
sensitivity and flair, John Rutter has created the
consummate arrangement of this Sydney Carter
classic! In his music, John perfectly balances the
suspenseful sweep and full range of emotions that
the text exhibits. At times it is playful and dance-
like, and at other times it is very dark, gloomy, and
dramatic. Beautifully orchestrated, this Shaker
melody takes on a new character that is vivid,
colorful, and accessible to every choir.

Brandon Williams. Here is the beautiful final
movement from Giacomo Carissimi's oratorio
Jephte. Originally for SATB choir, soloist, narrator
and instruments, here is a new arrangement for
tenor/bass voices that allows them to explore this
important musical style. Along with the Baroque
style and the Latin text, this piece also lends itself
to teach legato line, imitation and the emotional
context of loss and lamentation.
