Beautifully depicting the change of seasons
from fall to winter, this lilting minor waltz spins

phrases and interesting harmonies with a
contemporary feel are pleasant to sing. A lovely
fit for fall or winter concerts!

Winter With You—Pinkzebra. Here's a tender
song about sharing beautiful winter moments
that works for choirs of all ages. A serene
melody line and warm harmonies give the
feel of sitting in front of a warm fireplace on
a cold winters night with the ones you love.
Perform with the accompaniment MP3, or
feature a cellist along with the peaceful piano
accompaniment. Help your students rehearse
with the part-dominant MP3 practice tracks,
available in a multi-user bundle to share with
your whole choir.

Wishing Star—Beth Bolton/arr. Laura Farnell.
"Shining and shimmering up in the sky..." this
text is reminiscent of the Star Light, Star Bright
nursery rhyme. The use of Mixolydian mode
and compound meter create a sense of longing
with an endearing, whimsical quality. Choirs will
appreciate the independence of line that creates
the beautiful quality of this concert piece.
10846390 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.25
You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch (from "How
the Grinch Stole Christmas")—Albert Hague/
arr. Jeff Funk. Featured in the ever-popular
Dr. Seuss cartoon "How The Grinch Stole
Christmas," this delightfully dramatic song
is a natural for young and developing choirs!
Set in a minor key, with theatrical effects in the
accompaniment, spoken lines and wonderfully
entertaining lyrics, this arrangement is sure to
be a hit in your holiday performance!

Ah, Poor Bird—arr. Ruth Elaine Schram. This
traditional English canon is presented with
haunting musicality. Set as a round, singers
are introduced to harmony in a manner that
is easy to execute and includes comfortable
ranges and familiar rhythms. This is a perfect
educational piece for teaching minor keys,
counting rhythms, and harmony. To enhance
your performance, optional cello and oboe
parts are included as well!

And We Shall Sail (with "The Water Is Wide")
—arr. Glenda E. Franklin. An original melody
paired with the traditional Scottish folk song
creates a gently flowing partner choral for
two-part voices with optional flute. The original
words speak of sailing to places unknown, with
sails filled with a gentle breeze and a winding
river filled with adventures yet unknown. This
fresh take on a well-loved melody creates a
beautiful ballad for young voices to easily learn
and experience.
11427462 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . E 2.15
Arise and Greet the Day—Victor C. Johnson.
Driving accompaniment helps fuel the
excitement in this celebratory work for
developing choirs. There's a contrasting
legato middle section that complements
the opening fanfare before returning to the
joyous opening statement propelling us to
the inspiring conclusion. Perfect for a concert
or festival opener!
11514632 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.60
Asante Mungu (Thank You, God)—Jennifer
Klein & Karen Crane. Perfect for Thanksgiving
or at any time of year, this African-inspired song
will be fun for children to learn and sing while
also teaching an important message. This
original song uses a text with Swahili words of
thanks and their English translation paired with
a catchy melody. It may be sung in unison or
with the optional second part for some simple
harmony. An optional drum part makes it even
more fun!
11417407 Unison/Two-Part . . . . . ME 2.40
The Ash Grove, My Home—arr. Becki Slagle
Mayo. One of the most enduring melodies in
the folk genre, the beautiful lines of this Welsh
folk song are coupled with a lyrical piano and
optional flute accompaniment in this setting for
two-part treble ensembles. This is an excellent
work for developing tone and legato singing.
11501626 Two-Part or SA . . . . . . . . E 2.25
The Bat—Andy Beck. This creative original
piece written especially for two-part choirs
features quick-changing dynamics, textures,
and articulations that will both challenge and
reward young singers. Consider programming
in the fall for Halloween, or as a song cycle
with Firefly and The Moon, pieces on a similar
theme by the same composer.

Canon of Hope—Mark Burrows. "Find hope,
shine hope, sing hope." This simple melody
stacks into a three-part canon by the end of
the song, building the skills of developing part
singers. A quote from Emily Dickinson's poem
Hope Is the Thing with Feathers provides
contrast in the middle of this original song.

Celebrate the Differences—Jill Gallina. If we
could just teach one another to love, honor,
cherish, and respect each other, what a
wonderful world we could create! This upbeat
song embraces these qualities in an easy-
to-sing setting that is both memorable and
important. Spirited and uplifting, an extended
character education lesson is included within
the score.
11422573 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.25
Cluck Ol' Hen—arr. Greg Gilpin. This
arrangement of an Appalachian fiddle tune
from the mid-1800s is quite comical as it
creates the story of someone chasing down
their aging hen, trying to get it to lay eggs. By
the end, the owner is threatening to give the
hen away. Rhythmically engaging and great
fun to sing, it is "clucking" fun!
11501632 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . ME 2.25
Creature of Steel and Steam—Andrew Parr.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox's historical poem vividly
describes impressions of a locomotive as if
it were a living being of flesh and blood. With
a quick-paced minor key setting, dynamic
contrasts, and rhythmic writing, it is sure to hold
the interest of your choir and audience. The use
of well-crafted melodies and countermelodies
that partner make it easy to learn and will give
you great success as you perform.

George L.O. Strid. All aboard! Don't miss
