SECULAR CONCERT
Sing to Me—Andrea Ramsey. "Sing to me!
Something of sunlight and bloom..." An uplifting text
by Ella Wheeler Wilcox is set to charming music
in this wonderful piece with melodic interest in all
parts and conservative ranges. Ramsey's sensitive,
skillful writing makes for tender moments that truly
evoke the meaning of the text. Now available for
mixed voices, this has long been a favorite with
festival choirs in the two-part version.

Sing to Me—Reginal Wright. The poem urges
us to be jubilant and glad while the music is

accompaniment and a violin obbligato add special
punctuation to the message.

Sing Your Way Home—Joseph Martin. Deeply
expressive, an old poem is treated with rich
harmonies to become a moving closer for concerts
or festivals. Written with an ear to the a cappella
glee club tradition, the incorporation of Dvorak's
Going Home connects to the hearts of the audience
and wraps them in the embrace of the warm
sounds of the text: "Where'er you go, wherever you
roam, it will brighten your road; lighten your load, if
you sing, sing your way home."

piece features a fun flute part that adds to its appeal.

Singin' All Day Long—Karen Crane & Greg
Gilpin. Here's an accessible uptempo original piece
with a great message: "When those hard times
come along, keep singin' all the day long!" Positive
lyrics and singable melodic lines are a winning
combination for younger choirs. Check out the
neat bridge with finger snaps and layered parts.
Definitely fun to sing!

journey through the many gifts that singing
brings us! Memorable lines and contemporary
harmonies are backed by energetic percussion for
shaker, tambourine, and cajon. Easy to learn and
satisfying to perform, this a cappella original is a
perfect vehicle to help your choir start moving and
expressing on stage.

The Skipping Stone—Z. Randall Stroope. With
a mystical harmonic soundscape that lends itself
to the transcendental character of the various text
sources, this simple yet deep work centers around
concepts of strengthening our human experience
with ourselves and those around us.

Sleep—Eric Whitacre. This expressive, lush choral
work by Eric Whitacre combines an enigmatic
text and expansive chordal harmonies into a
sublime musical statement of release and quiet
resolve. With a text by celebrated American poet
Charles Anthony Silvestri, it is a particularly moving
perspective on the journey into sleep and, finally, to
dream. Stunning!

Sogno di Volare—Christopher Tin. Following
on the heels of the wildly popular Baba Yetu,
Christopher Tin brings us a wonderful new piece
from the soundtrack of the video game Civilization
VI. In Italian, with sweeping choral lines and an
epic feel, this dramatic piece is tailor-made for
the concert stage. Amazing! While the original
orchestration is available only as a rental, the
compatible concert band arrangement presents an
attractive accompaniment option that allows your
choir and band to team up for a fantastic concert

Someone Came Knocking—Cynthia Gray. If
you are looking for a spooky concert offering for
Halloween or any time of year, look no further! This
creative original is based on a Walter de la Mare
text about answering a knock on your door and
finding no one there! With a memorable melody,
clever interplay between voices, a frightfully
fun accompaniment and optional percussion,
this selection will provide all the giggles and
goosebumps you need!

Something Told the Wild Geese—Darin Lewis.
Rachel Field's poem is set to a simply elegant
melody that matches the tone of the text as
it expresses the change from fall to winter.
Ample unison lines are lyrical and expressive,
giving time to work on blend and musicality.
The melodic lines later combine as partners
to create meaningful harmony that is easily
learned. Lovely!

strong statement.

Two little birds in flight are threading webs of gold
in an endless sky..." This delightful piece will make

of songbirds! There's even a little trilling in this
outstanding, memorable concert and festival work!
10371571 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 3.35
Songs for the People—Rollo Dilworth. A big, bold
piano introduction sets the stage for this powerful
and inspirational song. "Let the harmonies of
freedom ring" is a message for this time and all
times. The gospel feel of this original song gives the
lyrics clarity, and an a cappella section makes this a
worthy closing to your concert!

The Soul Behind the Eyes—Jim Papoulis. Born
out of a songwriting seminar with middle and high
school students, this introspective text taps into the
thoughts, fears, and hopes of our young people.
The message and spirit of this inspirational song
will support young people who are working through
struggles of their own. "The soul behind the eyes,
fading slowly. The darkness in disguise becomes
the light in me."
11338687 SSAB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.50
Spes—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.

Stand by Me—Charles Albert Tindley/arr. Russell
Robinson. This 1905 American hymn has lyrics that
still resonate strongly today. "When the storms of
life are raging, stand by me." Beginning in unison,
it grows to a full four-part choral texture with solid
harmonies along with section features for the upper
and lower voices. A welcome addition to your
concert or service.
11393048 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 2.25
Stand Together—Jim Papoulis. From Jim
Papoulis' Sounds of a Better World series, this
original piece should be performed with an Irish
flair that evokes a distant longing and yet is very
hopeful in the present. The beginning of the song
is gentle and soothing; gradually, the energy starts
to increase, leading up to the refrain, "If we stand
together, we will sing forever of the dreams growing
in our hearts..."
