Crossing the Bar—Jonathan Reid. Boldly
sensitive, this is a must-sing! Bringing
innovative and interesting writing to this
setting of Alfred Lord Tennyson's inspiring
and beloved text, this is a great choice for
tenor-bass choirs looking for a special piece to
enhance their concert and festival programs.

Crowded Table—arr. Andrea Ramsey.
Now available for mixed voices, this country
pop song from supergroup The Highwomen
delivers a powerful message for us all to band
together and hold one another up. The optional
fiddle adds a nice touch to the pretty choral
harmonies in this poignant selection.

Dance for Love—Z. Randall Stroope. William
Straub's text implores us to "dance for beauty,
dance for laughter, dance for love" in this
heartfelt original work. The evocative piano
accompaniment adds to and supports the
voices. There are many teaching moments
and wonderful opportunities to explore lyrical
singing, phrasing, and simple mixed meter in
this accessible and memorable work.

Dance Little Flame—Jim Papoulis. The
metaphor embraced by the young poets that
collaborated on this piece is that of a flame in
all of us that, when encouraged, keeps dancing
and giving others hope. The simple melody will
give young choirs the opportunity to work on
dynamics and expression to share this truly
special message.

Dance!—Robert T. Gibson. An outside-the-
box rhythmic explosion that culminates with
a notated step routine! Lyrics encourage
listeners to "dance to the rhythm of your own
drum," embracing individuality and celebrating
differences. Vocal percussion and satisfying
parallel harmonies all add to the soul of this
piece. Step instructions are included in the
octavo, and an instructional video by the
composer is available.

Dawn—Jacob Narverud. Francis Ledwidge's
poem brings a sweetly sentimental tone that
is so well complemented by the lyrical lines
and gorgeous harmonies in this original
work. At once both musically satisfying and
accessible, it offers a chance to help choirs
bring maturity and lyricism to their tone
without increasing the difficulty.

The Dawn's Awake!—Laura Farnell. Just as
The Dawn's Awake!, a poem by early twentieth-
century poet Otto Bohanan, uses personification
and vivid imagery to describe the beauty of the
sunrise, Laura Farnell's music conveys the
hope of looking forward to a brighter future.
Developing men's choirs will realize their full
potential when they sing this serious work,
which is a refreshing change of pace from the
abundance of lighter fare in the repertoire. "The
dawn of a thousand dreams and thrills, and
music sings and rings in the hills."

Day of Fire and Sun—Kate Crellin. This
energetic and rhythmic setting of the Sara
Teasdale text is a true standout! With both a
contemporary a cappella feel and artistic choral
integrity, this is a piece that directors will love
teaching, and singers will love performing!

Deep Peace—Daniel Lynch. This lyrical setting
of a favorite Irish blessing is very accessible for
mixed-voice ensembles. It works well as a
benediction or for graduations.

Desperta Ferro! (Rise, Iron!)—Christopher
Fox. This medieval Catalan battle cry was
employed by the fierce Almogavers as they
struck the earth with their weapons, causing
sparks to fly. Bravado and confidence surge
with each additive cry of this original text
and music based on the powerful ancient
declaration. A dynamic choice for developing
tenor-bass choirs!

Ding-a Ding-a Ding—Greg Gilpin. This very
cool original is a masterpiece of vocal layering,
a "sound experience" for a cappella voices as
bells. All voices sing together in the middle
section before returning to vocalized bell
effects. "Merrily on high, hear the bells ring.
Merrily, the heavens sing. Merrily on high, hear
the bells ring. O'er the earth, they ding dong
ding." Now also available in an accessible
two-part treble or TB voicing with optional
accompaniment, this is appropriate for the
holidays or any festive occasion throughout
the year!

Dirait-On—Morten Lauridsen. This exquisite
work is the fifth of a set of choral settings of
poems by Rainer Maria Rilke entitled Les
Chansons des Roses. With velvet choral
lines and a pensive mood, it is a deeply
expressive musical statement for more
accomplished choirs.

Does the World Say?—Kyle Pederson. "Take
my hand, don't let go..." This inspirational
selection about the pressures the world
throws at us is an empowering and lyrical
work that will inspire singers and audiences.

Don't Be Seen—Stuart Chapman Hill.
A cut above the standard fare for three-part
mixed choirs, this is a work of substance for
middle school or high school choirs. With
an independent piano accompaniment,
optional cello, a wonderful boys' part, and
a compelling text, it will display your choir's
musicianship in fine style. "Fading from the
light, enveloped in the night, dart between the
stars, don't be seen... Light of the moon, light
of the stars, lead me - give me the strength to
be on my way..."

Dover Beach (Tales From the North)—
Meredith Tompkins & Ashley Dame. This
piece hints of the drama of the sea with rolling
and weaving melodies in the undulating piano
accompaniment. Small vocal ranges and the
effective use of unison, two-part harmonies, and
a descant propel the energetic and musically
charged melodic passages and motivate young
performers to be their very best!
