SACRED CONCERT & SPIRITUALS
The Battle of Jericho—arr. Moses Hogan.
This setting of the traditional spiritual is a
showpiece for better choirs and a superlative
example of the compositional skills of Moses
Hogan. From the opening ostinato rhythms to
the thrilling conclusion, the drama and intensity
of this work is truly extraordinary.

Bells—arr. Adrian Dunn. In this original choral
setting of the spiritual Rockin' Jerusalem,
the bells are intended to imitate the sounds
of gunshots in a rallying cry for justice. The
intensity and depth of this arrangement
will be a satisfying challenge for your
advanced ensembles.

Benedictus—Bruce W. Tippette. A familiar
Latin text is set in an original work with a lyrical
and easy-to-teach style perfect for developing
treble ensembles. With comfortable vocal
ranges, effortless vocal lines, and a graceful
accompaniment, this will prove to be a
perennial favorite for concert or service use.

Benedictus and Sanctus (from "Missa
Brevis")—Tom Shelton. Lively and energetic,
the Benedictus begins in unison and expands
into a three-part canon, then leads into a
fun, rhythmic Sanctus adding djembe and
overlapping vocal parts. The piece concludes
with a Hosanna, which incorporates the
return of the opening Benedictus. A wonderful
addition to the treble repertoire, suitable for
a variety of concert settings and groups,
especially community children's choirs.

Cantate Canon—Donald Moore. Here's a
delightful little canon that's easy to learn and
fun to sing! The contrasting center section sets
off the canonic ends, while the optional flute
adds to the lighthearted feel. Your choir will be
swept up in the forward motion as the lines and
text unfold. Ideal for beginning part singers!

Cantate Domino—Nancy Hill Cobb. Fresh,
singable melodic lines and a logical ABA-Coda
form make this original work by Nancy Hill
Cobb a perfect choice for any two-part choir.
A pronunciation guide for the Latin is written
in the vocal parts, and performance notes are
also included. The melodies have no difficult
leaps or accidentals, which simplifies teaching,
sight-reading and memorization. Educationally,
musically and compositionally solid. An
excellent choice.
3192275 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.20
Cantate Hodie! (Sing Today!)—Mary Lynn
Lightfoot. A very impressive opener or contest/
festival piece! Bright, fanfare-like motives,
incisive accompaniment, and text in Latin
and English work together to make this work
a standout for young and developing choirs.
First-rate music, with real lift and impact!

Cantique de Jean Racine—Gabriel Faure/
ed. Herbert Zipper. Probably Faure's best-
known and most frequently performed work
next to his Requiem. The lovely melodic lines
are over triplet figures in the accompaniment,
which can be done on piano, harp, or with a
small orchestra.
201335 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .M 3.50
A Choral Amen—Marianne Forman. This short
but soaring "Amen" can be sung a cappella
or accompanied with the simple piano part
included. Try it as a benediction, a choral
reflection, or as a short farewell to close a
service or concert.
11416633 SATB divisi, or SSATB . .M 2.25
City Called Heaven—arr. Josephine Poelinitz.
If you have an expressive soloist, consider this
slow, soulful spiritual arrangement, expertly
edited by Henry Leck of the Indianapolis
Children's Choir.

Treble or SSA . . . . . . . ME 2.05
Climbin' up the Mountain—arr. Russell
Robinson. This creative, accessible, and
well-crafted setting features a rhythmic vocal
ostinato that allows each section to shine as
they sing the melody. The supportive piano
accompaniment provides an infectious groove
that complements the fun vocal lines, and when
joined together will result in a memorable and
uplifting concert performance.
11514639 Three-Part Mixed . . . . ME 2.60
Come By Here—arr. Kyle Pederson. This
sensitive setting of the spiritual KUM BAH YAH is
not to be missed. In one spot the piano plays
a guided improvisation over the choir singing
neutral syllables. In another there is the option
to sing unaccompanied. An emotional high
point occurs when the sections each sing out
their situations, "longing, falling, hiding," then
answer together, "You are here." This work
hits every high mark in terms of vocal writing, a
skillful accompaniment, and a beautiful effect.
11199621 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.85
Come to Zion—Kevin Siegfried. Rhythmic,
joyous, and fun to sing, this inventive a cappella
arrangement of a 19th-century Shaker tune
opens slowly and freely before it quickly
segues into animated singing. Occasional
bursts of call-and-response energy ("Shout!")
spring from the homophonic texture in the spirit
of the sacred harp singing tradition. It provides
a great taste of this historical style for both
school and church choirs.
11512132 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.25
Conditor Alme Siderum—Jacob Narverud.
Featuring a baritone solo, this piece in mixed
meter has a Renaissance feel that expands
into a divisi texture, including modern rhythms
and sections of kneeling, floor patting, and
stomping. In Latin throughout.
11404057 SATB divisi . . . . . . . . . . .M 2.40
Confitemini Domino—Victor C. Johnson. This
energetic setting of the traditional Latin text
is ideal for developing choirs. A mixed-meter
introduction followed by energetic syncopation
and a contrasting middle section make this a
great piece for any festival or concert.

Cornerstone—Shawn Kirchner. The
composer pulls out all the stops on this gospel
piece. The piano part soars; the tenor soloist
dramatically rises above the choir. Enjoy this
long-time favorite!

Daemon Irrepit Callidus—Gyorgy Orban.
Chromaticism, rhythmic drive and lyric
melodies characterize this a cappella work that
is dramatic and stunningly effective for more
accomplished choirs.

Daniel, Daniel, Servant of the Lord—arr.
Undine Moore. One of the great a cappella
spiritual arrangements of all time, Daniel,
Daniel, Servant of the Lord is a very popular
selection in a variety of situations, and
deservedly so!
1254267 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .M 2.10
Death Came A-Knockin' (Travelin' Shoes)—
Ruthie Foster/arr. Paul Rardin. This bluesy
setting requires three treble soloists with power
and confidence. The choral backgrounds are
deliberately sparse imitating guitar, light organ,
and banjo until a climactic group shout. The
music is driving and relentless as the singers
are determined to be "ready to go" into the
kingdom of God. The characters in this unique
and compelling work are mother, sister, brother,
neighbor, preacher, and finally, self, which
reminds us that all of us will all face this journey,
so we had best live right and shout "Hallelujah"
when our turn comes.
11316622 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .M 3.50
Deep Peace—Elaine Hagenberg. Beautifully
capturing the essence of a traditional Gaelic
blessing, this original setting evokes the
natural tranquility of a "gentle night" where
the "moon and stars pour their healing light
on you." The flowing piano accompaniment
supports the soaring legato vocal lines to
create a mature and artistic texture while
remaining accessible to choirs in school,
church, or community settings. The optional
string quartet parts add additional serenity
and depth.

Deep River—arr. R. Nathaniel Dett, ed.
Marques L. A. Garrett. The motet-like setting
of this traditional spiritual features a soprano
melody with accompanying voices in flowing
choral lines. Lyrical and lovely, this is a
classical setting of the well-known spiritual.
