contemporary a cappella setting really catches the beauty and feel of the
original. Layered vocables surround the plaintive melody in a grand, lush divisi
texture that will be a beautiful concert highlight that is worthy of the extra effort.

Remember the Children
Kyle Pederson.
This work expresses the concerns that all people - particularly parents - have
for bringing up the younger generation in this trying world. The combination of
the English lyrics with their Swahili translation reflects the universal nature of
this sentiment, and the combination of a pop ballad feel and a gospel groove in
this beautiful song will appeal to all.

and a good choice for graduation.

A Round for Three
William Cranford/arr. Patrick M. Liebergen.
This tuneful a cappella canon is a valuable resource for teaching and
reinforcing part-singing. The jaunty melody is presented first in unison, followed
by a round and plenty of "fa la la" phrases. Add the optional flute and hand
drum for the classic Renaissance sound.
