l Green Man—David Brunner. There is a mysterious
quality about the man hidden in the rafters of so
many cathedrals and civic buildings of long ago,
as told by Mike Harding in the book, A Little Book
of The Green Man. He is secretive, curious, playful
and enigmatic, and the music creates these moods
by being rhythmic and angular, impish, darting here
and there, with a bit of fanfare each time his name
is announced. A great cross-curricular resource!

powerful message that will resonate with choirs and
audiences alike.

choral workshop were so moving, they inspired

New from Ola Gjeilo!
DREAMWEAVER
Ola Gjeilo. The text for
Dreamweaver is based on parts of
the well-known Norwegian medieval
folk poem, Draumkvedet, an epic
ballad that has a lot in common
with Dante's The Divine Comedy.
The protagonist, Olav Asteson,
falls asleep on Christmas Eve and
sleeps for thirteen days. He wakes
up and rides to church to describe
his dreams to the congregation
about his brave, beautiful,
terrifying, and ultimately redeeming
journey through the afterlife.
For this composition, the poem
has been adapted into a playful
interpretation in English penned by
Charles Anthony Silvestri. Seven
movements, for mixed chorus,
soprano soloist, piano, and string
orchestra 8/6/4/4/2.
