an exciting work that will make a great concert
opener! Mostly in 7/8 meter, it will give a nice
but achievable challenge to your chorus. A good
selection for honor choirs and festivals! "Let
everything that hath breath praise the Lord!"

A Prayer in Spring—Brad Nix. Robert Frost's
text is exquisitely set in this lush and beautiful
concert work. With a spring theme, the beauty
of nature and love is expressed. The music and
text pair perfectly in tone and emotion to create
a work of sophistication that will find a lovely
home in your spring concert programming.

Prayer of St. Patrick—Michael John Trotta.
This beautiful historic Irish blessing is a prayer
that is well known and loved the world over.
Set with a peaceful rhythmic simplicity, this
expressive a cappella setting allows the text to
shine through, bringing comfort and hope to all
who hear. The optional descant soars above
and is an ideal way to add additional shimmer
with solo voice or obbligato instrument. A lovely
way to close a service or concert.
11372333 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .M 2.90
Prayer of the Children—Kurt Bestor/arr.
Andrea S. Klouse. An important contribution to
today's choral repertoire, this deeply moving
tribute to the children of Bosnia was given
national and international prominence with
Weston Noble and the Luther College Nordic
Choir. It will be a stunning concert feature for
your a cappella choir.

The Promise of Living—Aaron Copland.
Aaron Copland's quintet from "The Tender
Land" translates beautifully into this setting
for combined chorus with band! Although it
makes a perfect choice for Thanksgiving, the
wonderful vocal lines make it a magnificent
showpiece any time of year. The SATB choral
part can stand alone, and offers a piano 4
hands accompaniment. The optional concert
band accompaniment is at the medium level
and requires the choral part for performance.
It's a fantastic way to program music by a great
American composer!

Psallite, Exsultate—Douglas E. Wagner.
With an energetic setting and a traditional Latin
text, this piece is an ideal opening selection
for concerts, festivals, or services. Different
melodic themes overlay as countermelodies to
build and develop the choral texture, making
this a great choice for teaching and holding
harmony parts for new or smaller choirs.

Psalm 148 (from "Hallelu Yah: Three Psalms
of Praise")—Dan Forrest. Triumphant strains
of "Hallelu-Yah" wind and dance through
various meters as they build in rhythmic
excitement and texture. A contrasting middle
section offers quiet lyrical reflection before
resuming the exuberance of the opening
motive as the piece moves to a joyful
conclusion. Standing alone, or as the opening
movement of the work "Hallelu Yah: Three
Psalms of Praise." this is a work worthy of
inclusion in concerts and services.

Psalm 150 (from "Hallelu Yah: Three Psalms
of Praise")—Dan Forrest. An exhilarating
accompaniment for piano with optional
percussion frames this dance in compound
meter that proclaims, "Let everything that has
breath praise the Lord" and "Hallelu Yah."
Divisi harmonies and lilting choral lines weave
through the exciting texture to a dynamic
conclusion. As a stand-alone piece, or as the
third movement of the ten-minute work "Hallelu
Yah: Three Psalms of Praise," this is a glorious
addition to your concert or service.

gospel chord progressions and lush harmonies.

Requiem—Eliza Gilkyson/arr. Craig Hella
Johnson. Singer/songwriter Eliza Gilkyson
wrote Requiem as a song of grief following
the Asian tsunami in December 2004, and the
song found a renewed audience after Hurricane
Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast region. This
setting by Conspirare conductor Craig Hella
Johnson is powerful in its emotional impact.
10045096 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .M 2.10
Ride On, King Jesus—arr. Moses Hogan.
Scored for mixed voices or women's voices
and piano, this exuberant work represents

statements and is a powerful concert feature
for better choirs! Extraordinary in every way!

with piano in E-flat and less divisi.

Salmo 150 (Psalm 150)—Ernani Aguiar.
A very rhythmic work, with rapid articulations, this
is an exciting showcase for a cappella choirs.
Written by a well-known Brazilian composer, it
has a distinctive Latin American feeling that will
really light a fire under your singers!

this piece is rewarding to learn and craft into a
memorable choral experience.

Sanctus and Benedictus—Rollo Dilworth.
The Sanctus, including the Benedictus, is a
joyful celebration and acclamation, part of
the Mass ordinary and canonical hours. Here,
as it stands alone, it is all of that and more.
This powerful and inspirational gospel-style
arrangement includes a piano accompaniment
that does not disappoint!

Sanctus! Sanctus!—Christopher T. Gabel.
This dynamic and energetic piece is written
in an ABA style with comfortable ranges in
the voice parts. Making use of mixed meters
and solid homophonic harmonic writing, this
selection is appropriate for concerts year-round
and will work very well as a festival opener.

Scapulis Suis—Mark Burrows. For the more
advanced treble choir, this setting of a psalm
of hope calms and satisfies the soul, bringing
comfort to the listener. With a lovely ethereal
quality, the beautiful harmonic writing and
accessible ranges afford treble choirs of all
sizes opportunities to express compassion
and empathy.
11410889 SSAA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .M 2.25
Set Me As a Seal—Rene Clausen. Quiet and
relatively short in duration, this a cappella work
is pensive and wonderfully expressive. Often
selected for performance in contests and
festivals, it has earned its reputation as a 20th
century choral classic.

Shall We Gather at the River—arr. David
Lantz III. Jazz harmonies and a vocal solo give
new interest and life to the well-loved Robert
Lowry folk hymn. Smooth voice leading means
your choir can focus on nuances of text and
phrasing for meaningful communication that
will resonate deeply with your audience.
11395417 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .M 2.25
Shine on Me—arr. Rollo Dilworth. Once the
gospel swing gets started, it just never lets
up in this powerful selection that is a dynamic
musical statement for today's choirs. Its 9/8
meter coupled with an expressive, hopeful
text is compelling enough, but the bluesy
piano accompaniment and the generous use
of seventh chords make this a completely
irresistible choral feature.

Shut de Do—Randy Stonehill/arr. Mark Hayes.
Since its publication in 1984, this energetic
work has remained a popular piece in choral
repertoire, and for good reason. Call and
response vocal lines dance over Latin rhythms
which are enhanced with simple but effective
percussion instruments. Exuberant and joyful
at every chorus, Shut De Do continues to merit
our highest regard as music of exceptional
teaching and learning value.
