With its rising and falling melodic lines and lilting accompaniment, the singer

Louis Stevenson's text is set in a delightful way that expresses just the right
blend of depth and whimsy to appeal to young choristers. Accessible, with
thoughtfully composed harmonies and gracious interplay between the voices
that swings the interest back and forth. Delightful!

Terpsichore Dances!
Amy F. Bernon.
In this wonderfully unique composition, Amy F. Bernon's vibrant and embracing
writing centers around the "girl power" theme of freedom and being oneself.
A brisk yet graceful tempo, an engaging piano part, and confident vocal lines
all enliven this powerful message. "Terpsichore dances, her rhythm entrances.
She sings and the air that you breathe turns to song. She's wild and she's free
and her hair winds around her. Terpsichore, graceful, beautiful, strong!"

Soon We Will Be Done
arr. Kyle Pederson.
A redo of the classic spiritual, this new version is sure to become a classic
itself. The introduction is sung unaccompanied wtih the piano coming in for
the first statement of the melody in the tenor-bass parts. Spoken-word soloists
declaim in an almost rap-like fashion against the choir singing neutral syllables.
A fun, fast, swinging piece that your singers will love.

Spes
Hope
Mia Makaroff.
This joyous unaccompanied work for more advanced treble choirs combines
two texts about hope - one in Sami and the other in Latin - to create a work
that uplifts both the singer and the audience. Challenging but incredibly fun,
this will make a great concert opener or a work to center a program around.

Star of the County Down
arr. Ken Berg.
This is a familiar Irish tune arranged for treble choirs in an upbeat setting.
The singers will enjoy the storytelling and theatrical aspects of the song, but
much of the rhythmic excitement comes from the piano accompaniment, which
keeps the difficulty out of the choral lines. Accessible and extremely effective!

Star-Spangled Banner
John Stafford Smith/arr. Jacob J. Narverud.
Elegant and creative, Narverud's concert setting of the national anthem is
destined to become a classic. His masterful harmonies for mixed divisi choirs
are challenging, but not overdone. A perfect signature anthem arrangement!
