Sisi Ni Moja—Jacob Narverud. A celebratory,
highly rhythmic composition. The Swahili title
means "We are one" - meaning all human
beings have much in common. The energetic
djembe sets the tone, the piano adds its own
rhythmic design, and the singers dramatically
deliver the message.

Solfege Sonata—Audrey Snyder. Have fun
practicing solfege with this lighthearted spoof of
Mozart's famous Piano Sonata No. 16. Excellent
as a concert closer or encore, this piece will make
your audience chuckle as they learn a little music
trivia about Mozart and melody - plus it's a lot of
fun for your accompanist!

exceptional arrangement.

The Soul of a Tree—Amy F. Bernon. A
shimmering, luminescent musical setting of an
original text, this concert work is replete with
lyricism and musical sensitivity. The text speaks
of ancient trees that represent longevity, wisdom,
and steadfastness in our ever-changing world.
The flowing piano accompaniment beautifully
frames the choral lines that move in gorgeous
melodic lines and harmonies.

Stand Up (from "Harriet")—Joshuah Campbell
& Cynthia Echeumuna-Erivo/arr. Rollo Dilworth.
Highlighting themes of courage, perseverance,
and care for others, this empowering song written
for the movie "Harriet," depicting the life and
legacy of Harriet Tubman, has become a favorite
choral selection. Expertly set here for younger
voices, this piece presents numerous teaching
opportunities for exploring the historical context
as well as the musical style. A great concert
choice for developing choirs!

A Thank You Note to the Universe—Jocelyn
Hagen. A powerful and colorful affirmation of life's
beauty, this is like a miniaturized, one-movement
symphony for chorus, piano, and flute. The
combined musical forces are whisked together
as a single expression, greater than the sum of
their parts. The piano arpeggiates with washes
of color and harmonic support while the flute
dances above, virtuosic and serene. The choral
timbres are blended brilliantly to communicate a
unified message: "Thank you."

The Life I've Been Given—Rachel Allen/
arr. Tim Coles. This beautifully simple song can
open or close your concert. With three verses
(peace, love, joy), this is uplifting, comforting,
and community-building. A great choice for a
participatory experience. Engage the audience to
sing along with your choral ensemble by taking a
minute to teach them this expressive melody!
11415738 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.40
There Was a Time—Elaine Hagenberg. William
Wordsworth's reflection of a time gone by
acknowledges past heartaches while creating
a dream world where beautiful memories reign.
As the vocal lines rise and fall to trace a distant
rainbow, an ethereal piano accompaniment adds
its own voice glistening above. Then together
they soar to new heights to "find strength in
what remains behind." An absolutely stunning
statement for mixed choirs!

Things That Never Die—Brad Nix. The
thoughtful poem by Charles Dickens provides
the inspiration for this lovely work. "The pure,
the bright, the beautiful that stirred our hearts
in youth... the striving after better hopes; these
things can never die." With this comforting
message, both church and school ensembles will
be enriched by this musical setting.

This Is My Country—Al Jacobs & Don Raye/
arr. Cristi Cary Miller. This familiar patriotic song
from 1940 has a folky and nostalgic quality. The
flexible arrangement offers cued note options
in the three-part mixed version to expand the
harmony by adding basses. It's a great choice
for patriotic concerts or as a festival choir
closing selection.

in 'Umoja (Unity)!' A piano part is included, but
performance can simply be accompanied by the
included percussion part.
