SACRED All Voicings medium / medium-advanced
Psalm 100—Rene Clausen. This exceptional work
is a wonderfully expressive choral statement and
continues to be a popular choice with contest and
festival choirs. Originally written to be accompanied
by two pianos, this new edition has masterfully
captured the essence of the two pianos and
melded them into a single piano part delivering a
new, exciting and more accessible edition.

Psalm 23—Z. Randall Stroope. Psalm 23
is the canvas upon which Z. Randall Stroope
paints this stunning work for women's voices.
With accompaniment for piano, flute and oboe
(included), this is music of substance for treble
choirs, every bit as rewarding as it is challenging!

H Requiem—Eliza Gilkyson/arr. Craig Hella Johnson.
Singer/songwriter Eliza Gilkyson wrote Requiem
as a song of grief following the Asian tsunami in
December 2004, and the song found a renewed
audience after Hurricane Katrina devastated the
Gulf Coast region. This setting by Conspirare
conductor Craig Hella Johnson is powerful in its
emotional impact.

4L Rise, My Soul—arr. Susan LaBarr. Rich melodic
t lines and fragments form the basis for a delicious
counterpoint in this traditional folk hymn arranged
for mature treble voices. LaBarr's harmonies are at
once modern and tasteful, with elements of tone-
painting and melismatic treatment of the word
"rise" throughout. Yet, she retains the historical feel
of this joyful American song in an a cappella style
that is worthy of study and performance. Beautiful!

96 sparkles with excitement and syncopation. A
contrasting middle section presents the opportunity

4 Stabat Mater—Sulpitia Cesis/ed. Meredith
Bowen. This is a work by a little known 17th century
Italian composer, lutenist, and nun - Sulpitia Cesis.
In groundbreaking research by Meredith Bowen,
we not only learn that women sang in the early
church but also that women wrote music for it as
well. Providing both a realized accompaniment and
a cello part, authentic performances are possible of
some of these little known but magnificent works.
Discreet editorial suggestions are provided to assist
in an informed presentation.

Three Contemporary Latin Settings—Jerry
Estes. This special set of three short pieces is great
for captivating and motivating developing choirs; it
is now available for SATB choirs as well. The easy,
repeated Latin phrases come to life with fresh
musical ideas. The Kyrie, with its staccato versus
legato singing, contrasts with the simple, melodic
ballad feel of the Adoramus Te, which in turn is
contrasted with the celebratory style and energy of
the Gloria in Excelsis Deo. For school or church,
sung independently or as a set, for holiday use or at
any time of year, this is a powerhouse for teaching
and performing! Highly recommended!

lL Three Folk Hymns—Gwyneth Walker. This
collection for SATB chours, children's chorus and
piano includes I Will Arise; Be Thou My Vision and
Standin' in the Need of Prayer. Rather than the
traditional four-part hymn style of harmonization,
these songs explore and offer alternatives
presentations. Each is written in a way to involve
both an adult choir along with a children's choir.

more readily achieved stacked harmonies. A good
selection for well-balanced choirs of any size.

t Vox Populi—Giedrius Svilainis. "The voice of the
people is the voice of God..." Vox populi, vox Dei
opens with a fortissimo fanfare-like passage in
B-flat major. The basses then introduce a marcato
ostinato, followed by the tenors with a rhythmically
contrasting theme. The women enter together, with
syncopated rhythms, then all voices unite at the text
"Ubi Concordia" ("Where there is unity"). The music
of the opening fanfare returns to conclude this high-
energy a cappella work.

Ht The Word Was God—Rosephanye Powell. What
an impact this august work will have on both choir

piece using impressive techniques that are truly

the superb interplay between the voices, and the
layering of sound upon sound creates a musical

definitely not a spiritual, this will make a stunning
choice for larger or festival choirs!
