LITURGICAL ANTHEMS
General
Liturgical Anthems
Agnus Dei—Michael John Trotta. Standing
alone or as part of a larger Missa brevis, this
modern setting of the traditional Latin text
is carefully crafted with achievable ranges,
sensitive musical phrasing, and attention to
syllabic stress. Flexibly accompanied by either
piano or harp with optional flute obbligato,
the setting is based on an easily learned
partner song with two lyrical melodies in the
minor mode. A wonderful choice for concerts,
festivals, or worship services.

All My Hope on God Is Founded—Nick
Klemetson. A new tune is paired with a beloved
hymn text in this anthem written for smaller
choirs. Creative writing and text painting give
this anthem musical interest, making it effective
for choirs of any size. Sing this anthem for
services with a theme of trust and guidance.

All Through the Night—arr. William Averitt.

Welsh folk song. With limited divisi towards the
end, it has beautifully lyrical writing and will be a
warm and welcome addition to any concert.

Alleluia—Michael John Trotta. Through the
single word "alleluia," this piece is excellent
for groups looking to explore closer cluster
harmonies, unification of vowels, and musical
phrasing. Moderate vocal ranges and an
optional descant put this sophisticated-sounding
piece within reach of many ensembles. The
second half of the piece may be extracted for
use as an introit or benediction to open or close
your service or concert. Available a cappella or
with piano accompaniment.

Amabile Alleluia—Sarah Quartel. This joyful
setting of the Alleluia was written for the 2020
Amabile Festival in London, Ontario, at which
Sarah Quartel was the guest composer/
clinician. The original scoring was of children's
choir alongside SATB voices, but can also be
performed by an SSATB choir.

Angel Band—arr. Shawn Kirchner. "The latest
sun is sinking fast, my race is almost run..." The
beloved American folk hymn from Kirchner's
Heavenly Home collection comes to life anew,
with soaring descants, countermelodies, and
rich harmonic textures in this beautiful setting
for divisi a cappella choirs.

Antiphonal Kyrie—Susan Thrift. Here is the
perfect way to introduce a cappella singing
to your young choir! The chant-like melody
is stated in echo style, then all voices join in
harmony. The excellent performance notes
include a pronunciation guide for the simple
Kyrie text. At just over one minute in duration,
this is a little gem!

Ave Generosa—Ola Gjeilo. This setting of
Hildegard of Bingen's Ave Generosa text
uses a hauntingly joyful tonality, paying
homage to the mysterious story of Mary. A
beautiful middle section is surrounded by
contrasting modal beginning and ending
sections. The juxtaposition of sustained
and moving moments holds true to the
composer's style, while the harmonic
structure and vocal construction offer very
fresh textures.

The Call—Mack Wilberg. This simple setting
of the well-known poem from George Herbert's
The Temple features sweeping melodies and
an extended organ introduction. The melody is
taken up first by upper voices, then full chorus,
to create a work of depth and poignancy.
11342505 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3.65
The Chorister's Prayer—Joanna Forbes
L'Estrange. This anthem conveys a
meaningful petition for God's blessing as
we minister through music. The melody
confidently underscores the message
of service willingly given, and the organ
accompaniment includes all vocal parts,
making this delicate anthem easy to learn.
For general use or any service focused on
themes of commitment or discipleship.

Come, Great Love—Dominick DiOrio. "Glory
to God, alleluia!" An invitation for God to
inhabit our music and worship, this celebratory
anthem was composed to showcase the organ
and requires a competent organist. The full
choral texture alternates with unison singing,
and tonal sections lead occasionally to more
adventurous harmonies in both the choir and
the organ.
11512098 SATB w/Organ . . . . . . . . . . . 3.15
Come, My Way, My Truth, My Life—Thomas
Keesecker. George Herbert's timeless text
is reimagined in this lovely setting featuring
beautiful choral writing that varies by stanza:
women in the first verse, men in the second,
and all in the third. The flowing piano
accompaniment propels the voices forward as
they build to a warm close: "Such a heart as joys
in love." This is very accessible and rewarding.
11394778 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25
Density of Light—Sarah Quartel. This setting
of an evocative hymn text by Thomas Troeger
is for divisi choir and organ. Drawn from an
Epiphany reading, the anthem explores the
theme of the triumph of light over darkness.
The organ opens with a rising and falling
quaver motif that is developed in the vocal lines.
Expanding into dramatic homophonic textures,
the piece ends with the words 'glory be to you
O God' sung to powerful fortissimo chords.

Divine Encounter: I. The Invitation—Craig
Courtney. The first movement of the trilogy
Divine Encounter is a song in which God
invites us to receive His bounty. The first verse
of Isaiah 55 is expressed as a celebration
rather than the meditative, lyric manner found
in most settings. In contrast, the setting of the
sixth verse is regal, earnest, and authoritative;
the architecture of the movement is built upon
the contrast between these two styles.

Divine Encounter: Il. The Invitation—Craig
Courtney. The second movement of the trilogy
Divine Encounter is based on Micah 6:8 and is

As we partake of God's bounty, we are urged to
offer ourselves as living sacrifices to serve God
and people alike.

Divine Encounter: III. The Blessing—Craig
Courtney. The third movement of the trilogy
Divine Encounter is a newly composed
benediction based on the traditional text from
Numbers 6:24-26. As Jesus blessed and
multiplied the fish and bread, so God blesses
the offering we bring to Him. The melody,
which is one huge arc, is stated twice, creating
a simple, sincere message of peace and rest.
