Love Divine—James Biery. "Love divine, all

tranquil opening, the piece flows seamlessly
through increasingly majestic verses supported
by the organ before drawing to a quiet close.

Lux Aeterna Domine—Patti Drennan. Using
the traditional Latin text from the Requiem
Mass, this original setting of the symbolic
prayer for light is a beautiful journey for mixed
divisi choirs. The a cappella texture opens
with a hushed quality and layers of closer
harmonies before traveling through a more
adventurous section that builds in dynamics
and intensity.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God—Kyle
Pederson. This arrangement is a true
reimagining of Martin Luther's iconic hymn
melody. New harmonies and ambient electric
guitar accompaniment create an ancient/
modern feel, giving new life to this classic
hymn. A piano-only accompaniment part is
available should you want to program this with
just the piano accompaniment.

The Music of Living—Dan Forrest. This
powerful and inspirational piece with a
dynamic piano accompaniment was composed
for a performance at the 2011 Texas Music
Educators Association Convention. This
exuberant work will challenge your choir, but it
will be worth the work in the end. Optional full
score with violin, horn, timpani, and percussion
is available and while it is scored for TTBB
voices, it can be used with the SATB version.

O Splendour of God's Glory Bright—
Toby Young. This energetic setting is a real
showstopper! With a sparkling organ part, this
effervescent arrangement fuses modern and
traditional sounds, while changes in key and
meter build up to an invigorating finish. Perfect
for accomplished choirs looking for a special
piece for worship or concert!

Oh, Who Can Know the Mind of God—
Justin Wedgewood. This sweeping yet tuneful
setting of Sr. Genevieve Glen's powerful hymn
text effectively conveys a sense of awe and
reverence in the face of God's power and
creation. The octavo features a choral anthem
setting accompanied by keyboard, guitar,
and solo instrument. To encourage assembly
participation and provide for varying pastoral
needs, a hymn version in a lower key with
simpler keyboard and guitar accompaniments
is also included.
11396594 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.65
Praise to God, Immortal Praise—Sandra
K. Tucker. A majestic anthem of thanksgiving,
this piece captures the classical spirit of the
18th-century text. Scored for choir, organ,
and C instrument, it opens and closes with
homophonic vocal writing that is nicely
contrasted with the more linear second verse.

Prayer of St. Patrick—Michael John Trotta.
This beautiful historic Irish blessing is a prayer
that is well known and loved the world over.
Set with a peaceful rhythmic simplicity, this
expressive a cappella setting allows the text
to shine through, bringing comfort and hope to
all who hear. The optional descant soars above
and is an ideal way to add additional shimmer
with solo voice or obbligato instrument.
A lovely way to close a service or concert.

Psalm 139—Michael Burkhardt. A
mysterious introduction using keyboard,
optional handbells, and oboe gives way to a
slow, lyrical 6/8 setting of the psalm. Almost
like a courtly dance, the tempo fluctuates
with the spirit of the text. After a reprise of the
introductory material, the anthem becomes
almost through-composed, reflecting the
emotional arch of the words. Some a cappella
sections provide nice contrast.

Rejoice in the Lord—Hal H. Hopson. Verses
from Psalm 33 form the basis of this energetic
anthem. Hal Hopson has been known for many
years as an accomplished composer of sacred
music, and here there is both joy and lyricism.
This is not at all difficult for any choir.

Requiem—Eliza Gilkyson/arr. Craig Hella
Johnson. Singer/songwriter Eliza Gilkyson wrote
Requiem as a song of grief following the Asian
tsunami in December 2004, and the song
found a renewed audience after Hurricane
Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast region. This
setting by Conspirare conductor Craig Hella
Johnson is powerful in its emotional impact.

Rivers of Living Water—Trevor Weston.
This setting of Psalm 105 and John 7
imaginatively depicts the "rivers of living water"
and the contrasting "parched land" in episodic
form, providing musical structure, variety,
color, and atmosphere. An independent but
delicate organ part brings further color while
underpinning long vocal lines which interweave
and occasionally perform unaccompanied.

Sanctus—Michael John Trotta. The final
installment of the Missa Brevis, this peaceful
work features opportunities for unison
singing and the development of independent
part singing. With conservative ranges and
opportunities to focus on pure vowels and text
accentuation, this is an elegant addition to
any concert or service. Combine with Trotta's
other Latin works Kyrie, Gloria and Agnus Dei
to create the full Missa Brevis.

Set Me as a Seal—Michael John Trotta.
Elegant simplicity is the hallmark of this
shimmering setting of a favorite text: "Set
me as a seal upon your heart ... for love is
as strong as death." Straightforward rhythms,
careful management of vocal ranges, and a
judicious use of close cluster harmonies put
this work well within the reach of many choirs.
A perfect choice for choirs looking to establish
a more mature sound and musical sensitivity.
Alternate voicings render this piece accessible
as a solo or duet.

Source of All Healing—Michael John Trotta.
This outstanding original anthem quietly brings
the listener into a prayerful time seeking
wholeness. Recalling miracles of healing, the
response is to ask for healing in body and
soul. Slightly discordant harmonies recall sin
and pain before a beautiful harmonic refrain
responds, "Come, Holy Jesus, abide with
me now." A wide dynamic range brings the
inspired words to life, and the ministry of the
message speaks to any worship gathering with
firm assurance.

Splendor—Elaine Hagenberg. The opening
movement from the larger work "Illuminare"
set on Saint Ambrose's Latin text radiates
majestic energy that heralds the arrival of
Light and a joyful "Gloriae" section. A brief
contrasting section of legato singing brings
a peaceful release before returning to the
vibrant momentum present in the opening. A
wonderful work that stands on its own as a
strong statement for mixed choirs.

Still—Heather Sorenson. This sacred tone
poem is a prayer for peace and a plea for
healing of the heart. The anthem rises from a
single tone, ebbing and flowing into harmony,
then back into simplicity with just a touch
of dissonance. As the words become more
impassioned, flowing piano interludes match
their intensity. This petition for calm begins to
quiet as the anthem winds down, allowing the
prayer to end in hushed chords of assurance.

Ubi Caritas—Michael John Trotta. The
beloved Latin text is set in an elegantly
simple texture with straightforward rhythms
and conservative ranges. A variety of
voicings is available, with and without piano
accompaniment. Larger voicings include
options for solo or C instrument. Beautiful
modern harmonies and cluster chords create
an artistic setting that is equally appropriate for
service use or the concert stage. Lovely!

When Memory Fades—arr. Eric Nelson.
With the well-crafted and comforting text
about dementia by Mary Louise Bringle and
the flowing and tender melody by Jayne
Southwick Cool, Eric Nelson has created
something deep, rich and thoughtful. The
piano accompaniment is supportive yet simple
and light, allowing the text and elegant choral
writing to be always at the fore. Men and
women are each given moments to shine, and
the ensemble writing is solid and nuanced.
A much-needed ministry tool.
