Gloria Patri
from "Magnificat" D. 486

Beginning with joyous acclamations, this exuberant piece features a
polyphonic middle section followed by a lyrical presentation of the "amens"
and the return of the homophonic style in the closing declamatory statements.

classical style of singing.

accompaniment, notated djembe percussion part, and syncopated vocal lines
that highlight the text come together to create a meaningful piece that will be
long remembered. Exceptional!

Hard Times Come Again No More

A banjo-like piano accompaniment and expressive fiddle stylings lend folk
authenticity to this plaintive and moving choral setting of Stephen Foster's
classic song. The text is set simply but fully, with individual vocal parts always
retaining a naturalness of line that create a rich, harmonic composite when
combined with the other parts.

Harriet Tubman
Walter Robinson/arr. Kathleen McGuire.
This superb a cappella arrangement is an inspiring tribute to the heroism of
Harriet Tubman. Vocal percussion effects, well-written harmonies, train sounds,
and call-and-response singing work together to create a wonderful choral tapestry
perfect for a district or festival choir feature. "Come on up, puh, huh, huh, I got a
lifeline, come on up to this train o' mine..."

Hi! Ho! The Rattlin' Bog
arr. Linda Spevacek.
This infectious Irish folk tune is a classic accumulative song! Verse by verse
it adds to the picture of a tree in a bog, with each addition anchored by a
delightful refrain. With very limited vocal ranges, it is great for young and
developing choirs and complemented by a lively piano accompaniment and
optional parts for slide whistle, ratchet, wood block, and cowbell.

Ho Boys, Can't Line 'Em
arr. Anthony Trecek-King.
This work song portrays the conditions in which African Americans found
themselves living and working during the post-Civil War reconstruction. This
incredibly dynamic work for tenor-bass choir is written in a call-and-response
style with rhythms that imitate the task of lining out a railroad track.

Hold Fast Your Dreams
Greg Gilpin.
The exciting fanfare opening exalts the title then continues with long melodic
lines above a rhythmic and driving piano accompaniment. Throughout, the text
is musically reflected in style and dynamics with a final and celebratory finish.
This vibrant setting of selected lines from Louise Driscoll's poem is an excellent
choice for concert, contest or graduation.
