D'varim is a lyrical setting of an essential maxim

standard in the choral repertoire.

n Arirang—arr. Hyo-Won Woo. Serving as an
unofficial anthem, this beloved Korean folk
song is creatively set by one of Korea's top
female composers. This arrangement begins
with beautiful, flowing unison vocal lines and
simple harmonies, then opens up into an exciting
syncopated rhythmic section with Korean
percussion, divisi, and descant. A truly wonderful
presentation of this anthem that captures both
the lyrical and the celebratory aspects of this well-
known piece!

& Christopher Tin. This unique title track from the
video game Civilization IV offers a world fusion

Prayer." Featured on the Video Games Live
concert tour, and winner of the 2011 Grammy
Award for "Best Instrumental With Vocalist," this
awesome piece is now getting worldwide play.
It features both alto and tenor soloists. Highly
recommended!

t Celebrai—Will Lopes. With a Portuguese text
and rhythms in the popular Brazilian groove
known as Capoeira, this song of celebration
begins with all voice parts emulating rhythm
instruments utilizing elements of contemporary a
cappella. If all goes well, a dance just might break
out in the auditorium during the performance!
10736190 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 2.50
n Eatnemen Vuelie (Song of the Earth)—
Frode Fjellheim/arr. Emily Crocker. The opening
musical number from the Disney animated feature
"Frozen," this song is inspired by indigenous
Saami and Norwegian culture, a combination
of Saami yoiking and the Danish Christmas
hymn Dejlig er jorden, or Fairest Lord Jesus, by
B.S. Ingemann. Yoik is a very old vocal tradition
among the Saami people of Scandinavia and
Russia, characterized by short melodic phrases
that repeat again and again, with small variations.
With English, German and Norwegian versions
of the text, synthesizer, percussion and optional
male yoik.
10519311 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 2.50
H Five Hebrew Love Songs—Eric Whitacre.
Written by Hila Plitmann and inspired by a trip
to Switzerland, each song in this suite is a poetic
postcard that captures every lush, romantic
moment in full. An expressive and idiomatic
collection for mixed or women's choruses. The
suite is set for piano and violin, but may also be
performed with string quartet.
3296219 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . MA 3.30
tL Hlohonolofatsa—arr. Daniel Jackson. This
tremendously fun arrangement of a South African
greeting song exclaims, "Iyo hlonolofatsa, Ka
lebitso la ntate," which translates as, "Bless
everything in the name of the Father." Featuring a
soloist, improvised percussion and hand claps, it
is very authentic sounding! Phonetic pronunciation
guide is included.
10593326 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 2.55
Ht Indodana—arr. Michael Barrett & Ralf Schmitt.
This highly dramatic traditional African song is
a true musical gem, presented a cappella at a
slower tempo. Arranged by two South African
composers, the ethnic flavor is palpable as the
upper voices carry the melody and the lower
voices provide the harmonic underlay in the
SATB version, while the SSA version uses a
small ensemble to present the melody with the
remainder of the choir providing the harmony.
Translation and pronunciation notes are provided.
10457610 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.15
t Kodutee (Journey Home)—Part Uusberg.
Estonian composer Part Uusberg's Kodutee
reflects upon the journey of life from birth to
death using vivid imagery of nature and the
everyday. Hauntingly beautiful both musically and
thematically, this a cappella piece in the Estonian
language is appropriate for high school choirs
and above. Recorded and IPA pronunciation
guides available.
10746471 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 2.70
n KwaMashu—arr. Theodore Cookson. From
the Andre Thomas choral series, this dynamic
arrangement is rhythmic and fun. This piece
was selected for the Texas All-State chorus and
is a fabulous world music selection for better
mixed choirs.
10770952 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.15
4tSan'bonani/Namhla Kudibene—arr. Michael
Barrett. A typical greeting in the Zulu culture, this
arrangement is written with the call-and-response
technique so strongly associated with traditional
South African music. The soloists can be male or
female and can take their time when performing
their parts. The response from the choir "Hololo
hololo" is jubilant and may contain ululating and
other traditional African noises. Simple hand
gestures and waving towards the audience is
appropriate. This is a perfect opener and an
opportunity for a choir to be walking among the
audience as they welcome them. Available for
treble and tenor and bass voices.
10765574 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.10
n Sililiza (Hear Me)—Jim Papoulis. This ener-
getic, uplifting work fuses the rhythms of African,
American and Latin cultures, and uses a text
primarily in Swahili but interspersed with phrases
in Spanish. Supported by shaker, djembe and
agogo bells, the middle section has the feel of a
cultural celebration, with layers of spoken words
that lead us to the understanding, "listen, hear,
stand strong."
10308985 SSAA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50
4L Sisi Ni Moja—Jacob Narverud. Ever clever,
composer Narverud came up with a highly
rhythmic celebratory composition. The title
translates "We are one", the theme being that
all human beings have much in common. The
energetic djembe sets the tone, the piano
adds its own rhythmic design, and the singers
dramatically deliver the message.

10776380 SA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.20
lt Son de la Vida (Son Veracruzano)—Jose
Galvan. This upbeat a cappella piece is truly
a celebration. Including vocal percussion
throughout, the dynamic rhythms, contrasting
sections, interplay between the vocal lines and
the text "Therefore, let's enjoy the delicious
sound of life!" call each of us to celebrate life while
making us want to join the song! Spanish text with
phonetic pronunciation and translation given.
10948737 SSATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . MA 2.75
n Tshotsholoza (Go Forward)—arr. Jeffery L.
Ames. Now available for mixed or men's
voices, this rousing arrangement of the popular
African freedom song has become a standard
in the choral repertoire. With call-and-response
vocals, African text, and rhythmic percussion
accompaniment, it transports the listener to
South Africa, where the song is often referred
to as the "unofficial anthem" of the country. It
was used in the soundtrack of the Oscar-
nominated movie "Invictus," and served as
South Africa's "battle call" at the 2010 World
Cup. This is essential multicultural programming!
Highly recommended!
10276407 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.55
n Turn the World Around—arr. Mark Hayes.
Harry Belafonte cowrote and recorded this feel-
good Jamaican-style piece which is based on
the idea that humanity is derived from the three
basic elements: fire, water and earth. Set in
simple 5/4 meter, it's catchy and fun, especially
for younger choirs!
10511031 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50
t Tutakwenda (We Will Go)—Will Lopes. Here
is an original celebratory piece in Swahili based
on Romans 8:31, carrying the message that we
can move forward in life because we know that
God is on our side. With solid harmonies, a steady
groove, optional choreography and percussion,
this piece will enhance programs in school,
community and church settings.
10683531 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . E 2.10
HtWangol—Sten Kallman. Your students will like
this! It's a popular folk song from Haiti about a
country in change. Wangol is a voodoo spirit and
he is addressed in the song: "Wangol, you are
leaving. When will I see you again? The country
is changing." The words express the hope of the
Haitian people for change and a brighter future
for their country, while the music is easy to sing,
with a great groove and style, complete with
rhythmic percussion and pronunciation guide.
