SECULAR CONCERT
Will There Really Be a "Morning"?—Craig Hella
Johnson. This marvelous setting of the famous Emily
Dickinson poem has become a standard selection
on state and regional festival lists.
10015881 SA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 2.00
Windy Nights—Cynthia Gray. A dramatic poem
by Robert Louis Stevenson is the inspiration for this
intense, exhilarating work, which portrays the poet's
childhood fear of storms. The music aptly captures
the sound and excitement of a stormy, windy night,
which the text likens to a riding horseman and the
pounding of his horse's hooves. Excellent editorial
notes provide fascinating background about this
poem and its famous author. This is wonderful
poetry and music for developing choirs!

Winter Is Past—Jeremy Samuel Faust. "The
rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the
earth, the time of the singing has come!" Written to
acknowledge a coming together in song again after
the most trying season of the pandemic, this song
captures the re-emergence of life - and with it, the
joy we take from making music, even as we reflect
on all that has happened. Simple choral harmonies
and a haunting cello accompaniment set the text with
a reverence and poignancy that suits the occasion.
11391224 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . M 2.15
Winter Lullaby—Susie Lampert & William
J. Smith/arr. Laura Farnell. This tender lullaby
moves along with a gentle lilt as it sings of the
sweetness and joy of childhood. Not a winter piece
in the traditional sense, this lovely work paints a
charming picture for treble choirs. The two vocal
lines are woven together with the warm piano
accompaniment and cello obbligato to make a
superb showcase for young choirs.
10760613 Two-Part or SA . . . . . . . . ME 2.30
Winter Waltz—Vicki Tucker Courtney. Beautifully
depicting the change of seasons from fall to winter,
this lilting minor waltz spins with freshness and
excitement that treble choirs will surely enjoy.

harmonies with a contemporary feel are pleasant
to sing. A lovely fit for fall or winter concerts!

Wishing Star—Beth Bolton/arr. Laura Farnell.
"Shining and shimmering up in the sky..." this
text is reminiscent of the Star Light, Star Bright
nursery rhyme. The use of Mixolydian mode and
compound meter create a sense of longing with an
endearing, whimsical quality. Choirs will appreciate
the independence of line that creates the beautiful
quality of this concert piece.

With You—Laura Farnell. Canadian poet Lucy
Maud Montgomery of Anne of Green Gables fame
provides lyrics that seem especially relevant again
after a time when in-person relationships were
challenging. Celebrating the joy of being together,
this inspiring text is paired with expressive vocal
lines that convey the emotion in the text with
alternating joy and poignancy.
11397061 TTB or TTB . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.50
A World of Music—Dave & Jean Perry. With lyrics
celebrating the gift of song, this piece is a perfect
selection to remind ourselves of the importance of
making music together. With easy-to-learn melodies
and carefully crafted harmonies, this is perfect for
young choirs that are new to choral singing or
gathering once again after time spent apart!
11347661 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . E 2.20
Would You Know Me by My Work?—Michael
Bussewitz-Quarm. This third movement from Where
We Find Ourselves features inspirational lyrics about
hard work in an anthem about what we are leaving
for our children. Beginning with a soprano solo,
the warm tones of this choral work evoke each
generation's care and concern for their children.

Write My Own Story—Jim Papoulis. This
selection was written in a student workshop
designed to give all young people a voice, giving
them a chance to express their feelings and write
their own story. Powerful.
11397481 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.60
Wynken, Blynken and Nod—Blake Richter &
Ryan Main. Eugene Fields' poem highlights the
fantastic dreamlike excursion of Wynken, Blynken,
and Nod as they sail off in a wooden shoe to
fish the night seas with nets of silver and gold. It
feels like a traditional sea shanty, but this original
composition has plenty of musical excitement to
offer young singers. The violin obbligato and artful
piano accompaniment really add to the texture,
and the conservative ranges in each voicing make
it approachable yet satisfying.

Yo le Canto Todo el Dia—David L. Brunner. If
you're looking for something different in a "music"
song, consider this original inspired by the native
music of Venezuela. Full of infectious rhythms
and playful melodies, with some very effective
hand claps, it conveys a positive message through
charming Spanish lyrics which are great fun to sing.

descant soars above the choir, adding a sense of
expansiveness: "Your voice brings hope!"

You Do Not Walk Alone—Elaine Hagenberg.
"May you always remember when the shadows
fall, you do not walk alone." This ethereal setting
of a traditional Irish blessing is scored in a variety
of voicings with piano. Deft strokes of Celtic styling
within the melody weaves throughout the vocal
texture. Gradually building in intensity, it transitions
into the final stanza with a burst of light, aided by a
key change, then slowly draws to a quiet close.
