both thought-provoking and emotionally stirring. "I
am many silent girls and boys, I was born to live and
be their voice, I am the new link in a broken chain.
Who am I? I am."

carries. The upbeat musical setting incorporates

percussion ensemble, along with the rhythmic
piano accompaniment. A joy to sing!

Wide Open Spaces—Sarah Quartel.
Commissioned for the 2015 National Conference
of the American Choral Directors Association, this
work reflects on the journeys and adventures to be
found in the wide open spaces within ourselves
and in the world around us. The uplifting melody
is passed from the upper voices to the lower voices
before the piece opens out into an expansive
texture with rich harmonies. A playful episode of
scat singing is introduced before a resolute final
chorus brings this evocative piece to a serene close.

Windy Nights—Cynthia Gray. A dramatic poem
by Robert Louis Stevenson is the inspiration for this
intense, exhilarating work, which portrays the poet's
childhood fear of storms. The music aptly captures
the sound and excitement of a stormy, windy night,
which the text likens to a riding horseman and the
pounding of his horse's hooves. Excellent editorial
notes provide fascinating background about this
poem and its famous author. This is wonderful
poetry and music for developing choirs!

t The Wisdom of the Moon—Susan LaBarr. The
Wisdom of the Moon expresses how easy it is to be
happy when things are difficult, but how we all need
to learn how to persevere during difficult times. A
sentiment of hope that is reflected in the tonality
and joyful triple meter. A great chance to feature a
soloist. Exceptional!
