GRADUATION & MOVING-ON SELECTIONS
Celebrate those special moving-up moments this spring
with one of these dynamic choral features.
Carry the Light—Andy Beck. Inspiring at any time of year, this song
brings light from a single solo voice that gradually increases luminosity as
the full texture builds. Mostly in English, with a short section on the Latin Lux

optional violin obbligato to increase the appeal. Consider programming for
general concerts, Christmas, or year-end ceremonies.
