& Judith Waller/Leck. A thoroughly delightful
calypso number which can easily be enhanced
by the addition of conga, maracas and/or

treble voices!

4 Sing a Solfege Song with Me—Catherine
DeLanoy. Fun with solfege for treble choirs! This
original two-part song teaches syllables and note
names along with scales, harmony and vocal
glissandi. Add hand signals or movement to create
a musical showpiece that is educationally sound
and fun to sing. Charming!

Things That Go Bump in the Night—Douglas
E. Wagner. Here's a novelty number that's perfect
for Halloween. "Just as eyelids start to close, just
as you begin to doze, there in the hall a resounding
thump, things that go bump in the night...."
Douglas Wagner's image-rich text lends itself to
riser choreography while the piano accompaniment
adds to the "spook factor" in this healthy dose of
ghostly fun!

H Three Quotes by Mark Twain—Andrea Ramsey.
This delightfully provocative piece for treble voices
is based on three very short, witty texts by Mark
Twain: The Silent Fool; Telling the Truth and My
Dear Mother. The music changes with each short
section, moving from ragtime to a waltz and finally
to the blues. Great fun for all!
10080294 SA or Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . 2.05
Tic Tac—Jim Papoulis. This piece uses half-empty
Tic Tac boxes as percussion instruments to remind
us that "all we have to do is listen and open our
hearts to get along." The rhythm of the music and
the "shakers" is infectious and will have everyone
tapping along!
10456943 Unison/Two-Part . . . . . . . . . 2.25
H We're the Men—Jay Althouse. And now, a song
that pays tribute to those un-sung heroes of the
chorus..."The Men!" If your men don't get the
respect that they deserve, this novelty number will
certainly bring their dilemma to light. Feature them
in your mixed group, or have them branch out on
their own with the TB voicing. If your men are the
prize of the choir, or even if they're not, this is the
perfect way to show them off!

sings loudly, "Are you listening?" It's very cute!
Highly recommended!

—arr. Cristi Cary Miller & John Jacobson. In this
celebration of America, an original tune is paired
with the traditional My Country, 'Tis of Thee set in

4 America, The Dream—Rollo Dilworth. Written as
a celebration of singing for racial and social justice,
this up-tempo setting is a terrific way for your choir
to experience a gospel feel. This powerful work
draws its text from the Langston Hughes poem
Freedom's Plow, and was written as a prequel to
Rollo's piece of the same name. The two pieces can
be performed separately or as a set. Really nice!

Armed Forces - The Pride of America!—arr.
Larry Clark & Greg Gilpin. Here is the definitive
patriotic armed forces tribute! It features the official
songs of all five branches of the U.S. Armed Forces,
plus The Pledge of Allegiance and The Star-Spangled
Banner, with optional audience participation. It even
includes parts of Sousa marches as interludes! At
under seven minutes' duration, this is a top choice
for chorus and piano or with band! (The U.S. Army
song is the original The Caissons Go Rolling Along
version.) Reproducible string parts are also included
in the set. Highly recommended!

H Battle Hymn of the Republic—William Steffe/
arr. Russell Robinson. The Wilhousky setting of this
19th century hymn is possibly the most heartfelt
musical pronouncement of American patriotism.
Divisi sections in all parts are accessible and still
richly expressive with harmonic colors and sweeping
dynamic contrasts. Emotional and highly effective, it
is a truly magnificent setting that may be performed
with band or orchestral accompaniment. It's also the
one chosen most often by U.S. military ensembles.

Blades of Grass and Pure White Stones—arr.
Keith Christopher. "Blades of grass and pure white
stone shelter those who've come and gone. Just
below the em'rald sod are boys who've reached the
arms of God. Buried here with dignity, endless rows
for all to see. Freedom's seeds in sorrow sown,
'neath blades of grass and pure white stones."
The text alone is compelling in its own right, but
when the lyrical folksong quality of the vocal lines
is added, the piece becomes something of its own.
Great music and a great message will make this
work of favorite for years to come!

jewel for choral or combined concerts. Sturdy and
proud, it features many unison and two-part vocal
passages with band-friendly keys to ensure good
