4L Dona Nobis Pacem (from "Missa Brevis,"
K.49)—W.A. Mozart/arr. Patrick M. Liebergen.
This well-written arrangement is a wonderful festival
piece for middle school choirs. A nice introduction
to singing in Latin, the easy-to-teach piece includes
a pronunciation guide and translation for the title
phrase, which is repeated throughout the work.
Well done!

Dona Nobis Pacem (from "Missa in C")—W.A.
Mozart/arr. Patrick M. Liebergen. From the "Credo
Mass," K. 257, this achievable setting of the
masterwork in Viennese Classical style presents
the option of featuring a vocal quartet on selected
passages. Only one Latin phrase and welcome
repetition minimize rehearsal time and allow
musicianship to be the focus.

Et in Terra Pax—Victor C. Johnson. This heartfelt
and poignant setting of the traditional Latin text
"And on earth, peace" features soaring melodies
and rich harmonies. The middle section further
develops the text with borrowed tonality for added
color and harmonic interest before a resolution to
the opening melody once again. Equally appropriate
for school concerts or a worship setting; any time
of the year is a fitting time to present this message.
A helpful pronunciation guide and translation is
included for the Latin text.

expressive setting of a traditional Latin text, sweeping
melodic lines and rich harmonies lead to an ending
of quiet splendor. Mary Lynn composes some of the

Gilpin. Grab your neighbor and join the choir,
because there's a place for everyone in this
energetic selection for young choirs. A memorable
melody becomes a spirited two-part echo song with
a swingin' accompaniment. This piece is a great
way to celebrate community and our shared identity
as the children of God.

4 Exultate Justi—Dan Davison. Utilizing a classical
style of composition, this new piece just might
transport you back to the time of Mozart! Full of
educational opportunities, the musical style and
interpretation is authentic sounding, and the Latin
text, generous doubling, and well-supported choral
parts make this a terrific concert or festival choice
for developing mixed choirs. The optional tenor line
is notated fully in the score, but it is always doubling
one of the other voice parts for added accessibility
and flexibility.

A Festive Alleluia—Mary Lynn Lightfoot.
Captivating syncopations, mixed meters and
rhythmic vitality spark this refreshing work.
This joyous piece in a minor mode incorporates
traditional Latin and English texts and just overflows
with an infectious energy. Vocal lines are sensibly
conceived, mixed meters are very logical, and
there's an optional bass part in the three-part
mixed edition. This is quality literature for choirs of
all ages.

Fly Away Medley—arr. Mark Hayes. A real
gospel tapestry! The arranging genius of Mark
Hayes shines in this stellar medley of gospel
favorites, including Albert Brumley's I'll Fly Away,
recently featured in the movie "O Brother, Where
Art Thou?," We'll Understand It Better By and By;
When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder; On Jordan's
Stormy Banks and When the Saints Go Marching
In. Arranged in a "down-home" country style with
fresh, playful choral harmonies, this will be as
much fun to sing as it is to listen to. The SATB
and SAB editions open with a stylized vocal trio
feature that really gets things going. The terrific
orchestration hits the mark and will guarantee a
spectacular performance!

H For the Beauty of the Earth—John Rutter.
John Rutter's engaging melody over a flowing
accompaniment is equally beautiful in either the
SATB or SA treatment. If you haven't already,
consider the instrumental accompaniment for a
fresh perspective on this sacred gem. Scored for
strings, winds, harp (playable on keyboard), and
drums, it includes instrumental lines that are as
lovely as the vocal lines. A perennial favorite, this
is a tasteful blend of text and musical expression.
Vintage John Rutter.

4L Gaelic Blessing (Deep Peace) (from "Light
t
Shines in Darkness")—Michael John Trotta.
A simple a cappella setting of Fiona Macleod's
traditional text that invokes the peace and
stillness of nature. The choral parts move gently
with extended cluster chord cadences and some
simple divisi. This is the eighth and final movement
from the larger work, and can serve as a beautiful
benediction or closing number.

Gather by the River to Pray—arr. Pepper
Choplin. Two traditional American folk hymns,
Down to the River to Pray and Shall We Gather at
the River, are creatively blended together in this
outstanding anthem. Accessible choral writing
delivers warm texture throughout as each song is
first presented separately and then in tandem. Just
as a river, the text flows gently above a simple yet
supportive keyboard accompaniment.

Gloria et Honor—Antonio Salieri/ed. Martin
Banner. While Salieri was not as heralded a
composer as many of his contemporaries, he made
significant contributions to sacred choral works
during the years 1788-1824 as Hofkapelmeister to
the court in Vienna. This work begins in a fugal style
before settling in to a homophonic setting. A perfect
example of the classical style, this setting is spirited
in nature with teachable moments throughout.
