missioned by the St. Olaf Choir for the 2016 St.

how light now shines because Christmas is a new
and refreshing gift; our hearts are renewed, and
our hope is renewed. This joyful reflection was
written for Christmas, but can be sung at any time
of year as a song of hope.

4e I Ask For One Day—Jim Papoulis. "I ask for
one day where I don't have to hear about pain, or
life that's lost. I ask for one day where whispers
of hope are alive inside my heart." These words,
written by 12 year old Claire Latimer for a choral
workshop were so moving, they inspired this
marvelous work. A song that motivates us all
to work for peace, this arrangement is very
appropriate for children's community, middle
school or younger high school ensembles.

l i carry your heart with me—Michael John
Trotta. Incorporating the chant melody from the
Introit of the Requiem in the Liber Usualis with
a unique juxtaposition of that requiem text and
the modern E.E. Cummings poem i carry your
heart results in a compelling, lush composition
accessible to mixed choirs of all sizes. With
optional oboe and solo or small group, i carry your
heart with me is appropriate for concert, festival,
retirement or a special tribute.
