SACRED CONCERT & SPIRITUALS / MULTICULTURAL
You Are My Refuge—Michael John Trotta. This
stunningly expressive work was commissioned by
a number of high school choir programs forced to
cancel concerts due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Inspiring and reflective, the rich harmonies capture
both a sense of poignancy and hope. An optional
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.

chant-like character of the piece almost makes you

festivals and regional choral activities.

than a greeting, "aloha" is also an acronym that

rhythmic original piece celebrates the five traits of
aloha, sung in Hawaiian, and then defines them in
