Peter, Go Ring-a Dem Bells
arr. Rollo Dilworth.
With conservative ranges in all parts, this gospel-style spiritual arrangement is
a great choice for younger choirs. Gospel harmonies, jazz and blues influences,
bell-like effects, and a classic layered bridge are accompanied by a piano part
that is authentically gospel but not overly difficult. Another gem from one of
today's preeminent arrangers of spirituals!

Pie Jesu
Russell Robinson.
The well-known Latin Pie Jesu
text is cast in a fresh setting for mixed or
treble choirs. Shifting tonalities and a plaintive melody line give the opportunity
for choirs to express lyrical phrasing and musical expression, while the
conservative ranges and underlying piano accompaniment make it achievable
even for smaller choirs. A simply elegant piece for concerts or services.

Piping Tim of Galway
The Galway Piper
arr. Don Sowers.
Here's a fun-to-sing arrangement of the popular Irish folk song accompanied
with a sprightly piano along with an optional flute and hand drum. Both
the upper voices and lower voices are featured with the melody, and the
accompanying harmonies in the verses reinforce the drum sound and the
angelic flute.

Red, Red Rose
Kara Stacy.
Up-and-coming award-winning composer Kara Stacey delivers a refreshingly
vibrant take on the traditional Robert Burns poem. Set for treble voices in two
and then three parts with an optional solo or small group joining the texture,
the lilting melody and well-crafted harmonies are supported by an energetic
piano accompaniment and some extra rhythmic interest from a tapped
tambourine. Delightful!

Refuge
Audrey Snyder.
American poet Sara Teasdale's text provides a mature perspective on the value
of music that can be understood and appreciated even by developing choruses.
This artistic setting is developed and musically satisfying with its suspensions,
clusters, and stretched harmonies, but at the same time it remains accessible
for young choirs. Truly a well constructed and valuable piece!

Om, Shanti, Om
Judy A. Rose.
The opening Hindu chant translates as "peace be with you." The lyrics then move
to English, maintaining peace as the central theme. The music is vibrant, with
tabla drum and harmonium accompaniment - this will be a concert highlight.

Omnia Sol
Let Your Heart Be Staid
Z. Randall Stroope.
Omnia sol temperat, "the sun warms everything," comes from a verse of Latin
found in Carmina Burana. The composer's English text speaks to the human
need to anchor words of love and commitment in the hearts of those who have
been pillars along life's way. This is an important contribution to choral literature!

On the Faces of the World
Song of Peace
Mark Burrows.
Beginning softly with a rainstick, a soloist or small group, and simple
background harmonies, this fun-to-sing piece picks up the pace with a
rhythmic, nicely harmonized section accompanied by shakers, hand drums, and
djembe. A nifty layered section using the word "peace" in different languages
provides contrast. Wonderful!

One Million Voices
Brian Tate.
Empowering singers to stand up and speak out against injustice, this
inspirational piece grows in intensity and strength. Styled like a musical theater
piece, it features declaratory melody lines over an ostinato that moves between
voice parts as it gathers momentum. Important and effective.

Oye
Listen
Jim Papoulis/ed. Francisco Nunez.
Full of life and energy, this work in Spanish and English expresses the plea
of Mexican children to the rest of the world to listen to their cry for help. The
percussion and bass parts (included in the score) really make it percolate from
beginning to end, and the performance notes make it easy to pronounce and
understand the Spanish. Now available for treble and mixed voices, this is a
very cool multicultural feature with an important message for today's world.

Peace to the World
Hyun Kook/arr. Alan Robert Petker.
This simple yet meaningful work pairs the familiar text Dona Nobis Pacem
with a gentle cascading melodic idea. In the middle of the song, an aleatoric
rendering of the text in numerous languages occurs that makes the message
even more profound. The performance possibilities are endless, with ideas for
choreography and sign language to heighten it further.
