piece of festival repertoire for young choirs sets a
traditional Latin text with joyous musical phrases. A

choirs of all abilities will embrace singing this
powerful and intense contemporary setting using
the Day of Wrath text. The powerful melodic
statements and lyrical part-writing contrast
beautifully with the rhythmic, percussive piano
accompaniment. Bold yet accessible, this piece

festivals and honor choirs. Driving rhythms overlap

4L Dixit Dominus (RV 595)—Antonio Vivaldi/arr.
Patrick M. Liebergen. Joy instantly abounds as
the well-edited keyboard introduction sets the
tone for this impressive yet approachable Baroque
selection for developing choirs. The short Latin text
is easy to manage and will help your choir sound
it's best. Beautiful phrasing and conservative
ranges in each voice part make this a sure-fire
festival opening selection.

4L Dona Nobis Pacem (from "Heiligmesse")—
Franz Joseph Haydn/arr. Patrick M. Liebergen.
Taken from Haydn's masterwork, this shortened
edition has also been transposed to make it more
accessible. The setting of the compact Latin text
explores many of the conventions of the Classical
period, including energized homophonic choral
lines, structured musical form, and stark dynamic
contrasts. The SAB offers cued note options to make
the range more conservative for younger voices.

lt Down to the River to Pray—arr. Debra Morton.
This arrangement for emerging treble choirs
beautifully blends unison, two-part, and three-part
singing and has a brief optional solo opportunity.
The harmonic language lends itself to ease of
learning and joy in performing, making this piece
a wonderful choice for festivals or concerts.

lD Down to the River to Pray—arr. Audrey Snyder.
This traditional arrangement of the time-honored
spiritual is accessible for middle school choirs.
The piece can be performed a cappella or with
piano accompaniment and uses fully notated body
percussion parts to complement the vocals before
coming to a hushed ending.

Et in Terra Pax—Mary Lynn Lightfoot. In this
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
best music available for school choirs, and this is a
prime example of her work. Highly recommended!

4L Exsultate—Mark Burrows. Singers in developing
choirs will love the excitement of this vibrant,
rhythmically driven concert or contest title. The
more lyrical middle section nicely contrasts the
excitement of the syncopated opening and closing
sections. The Latin text presents teaching moments
for creating tall vowels and crisp consonants.

l Exsultate—John Leavitt. A Latin text is set with
syncopation and mixed meters in this energetic
selection. Starting with a vocal unison and
building the chord out from there, the rhythmically
exciting choral parts are complemented by a
spirited piano accompaniment.

lD Exsultate Justi—Cristi Cary Miller. This setting of
Psalm 32 is jubilant and celebratory; it will work well
as a festival opener or closer. The energetic main
theme is contrasted with a lyrical legato middle
section. A pronunciation guide and translation of
the Latin text are included.

favorite on the festival circuit, this dynamic,
exciting, joyous selection surpasses the ordinary!

combined with a sizzling piano part, make this a

4L Festival Sanctus—Victor C. Johnson. Great
as a festival opener, this triumphant setting of a
traditional Latin text includes a pronunciation and
translation guide and is great for teaching pure
vowel sounds. Mixed meter sets an exciting mood
in the introduction, but the choral parts remain in
4/4, with reasonable ranges for young singers.
The lively syncopated opening and closing
sections are nicely contrasted by a slower, lyrical
middle section.

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.
