H Can You Hear?—Jim Papoulis & Francisco
Nunez. "Can you hear my cries? I am calling out
to you." The global community of children speaks
together in this dramatic call for a better future
that uses worldbeat sounds, unified chordal
harmonies, and occasional solos for a stunning
effect. This is an inspiring way to close your
concert or festival, or to set a tone for a dynamic
new beginning for a season of music-making.
Highly recommended!

Cantar!—Jay Althouse. Cuban salsa music is
sweeping the country, and Cantar! (which means
"Sing!" in Spanish) is a stylistically authentic salsa
work for choir. The text is a combination of English
and simple, repetitive Spanish phrases, set to a
rhythmically infectious melody. It's a cross-cultural
song for general concerts, especially during
"Music In Our Schools" month. The recorded
accompaniment really sizzles!

people of Scandinavia and Russia, characterized

again, with small variations. With English, German
