Uzaugo Liepa (Up Grew the Linden Tree)—
Kestutis Daugirdas. Expanding on a traditional
Lithuanian sutartine (part-song), this dreamy
reverie is about a woman who sings a young
man to sleep under the nine branches of a linden
tree that was battered by a storm. Recognized
by UNESCO as Masterpieces of the Oral and
Intangible Heritage of Humanity, sutartines are
traditionally sung with solo lines and canon. This
work preserves that texture in the first stanza and
then diverts to a newly composed section that
further illuminates the meaning of the text.

With powerful pop-like harmonies and vocal lines,
this expressive ballad allows for poignant and
emotive singing and musical sensitivity.

A useful concert opener that also gets your
choir warmed up! This hilarious blend of choral
warm-up routines is packaged into a performance
piece with piano accompaniment. Your choir will
love to impress their audience with their perfectly
executed choral technique, and you'll love that
your choir is really learning something! And it's
also useful as an actual warm-up regimen.

We Are the Children—Jen Wagner. Celebrating
the youth of the world and the future that they will

We Belong—Karen Marrolli. Featuring soprano
and tenor soloists, congas, and shaker, this
energetic piece speaks about peace, unity, and
the duty we have to show empathy and support
to one another. With a world-music feel, this piece
extends a message far greater than words that all
of humanity is interconnected.

We Shall Walk Through the Valley—arr.
Undine Smith Moore. The arrangement of this
African American spiritual is both accessible and
gorgeous. A short choral section is used for the
introduction, interludes between verses, and at the
conclusion, adding cohesion to a lovely setting.

The Wellerman—arr. Jacob Narverud. This 19th-
century folk song from New Zealand experienced
new life as a viral hit on TikTok and spawned
the sea-shanty trend. The ballad tells the story
of the hopeful inhabitants of a whaling village
waiting for the Wellerman ship to bring supplies.
This rousing arrangement is great fun and highly
accessible as it can be performed with either the
piano accompaniment or a cappella.

When Jesus Wept, the Falling Tear—William
Billings/arr. Kyle Johnson. The traditional
American folk canon WHEN JESUS WEPT has
been creatively deconstructed so that no more
than two parts are in canon at any given time, with
countermelodies in the other parts filling out the
harmony. This creative arranging allows the text
to be heard clearly throughout. Easily accessible
for small SATB choirs, the piece will be useful for
any size group.

When the Light of Morning Breaks—Pinkzebra.
Subtle choral harmonies begin peacefully as
the lyrics speak of the moments at the quiet
beginning of a fresh new day. Building with
energy and texture, they cry "Here I am!" in an
empowering call to embrace the present and
the future. Beautiful in both the a cappella and
accompanied versions, this is a perfect choice for
graduation and moving-up ceremonies as well as
for general concerts.

and entertaining concert selection for
developing choirs.

Wild Mountain Thyme—arr. Jacob Narverud.
"And we'll all go together ... to pluck wild mountain
thyme, all around the bloomin' heather..." The
gently lilting strains of this traditional Scottish
ballad are beautifully set in this arrangement.
Lush choral harmonies and well-placed unison
lines are carried along by the supportive piano
accompaniment.

The wind is my shepherd—Sarah Quartel. The
text, by Steven Heighton, is a secular rewriting of
Psalm 23 'The Lord is my shepherd.' Quartel pairs
the contemplative message with powerful textures
and driving triplet rhythms.

Wise Words—Blake Henson. Inspired by the
words of Fred Rogers, this original concert
work encourages us to speak words of truth
and wisdom to each other. Simple melodic
phrases and uncomplicated harmonies highlight
the text and allow plenty of space for musical
expression. The violin obbligato adds a nice
touch; the part is available as a free download
from the publisher's website.

Woodchuck—Mark Burrows. "How much wood
could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could
chuck wood?" Posing this tongue twister and age-
old question, this humorous piece features simple
body percussion and unison lines that repeat in
two- and then optional three-part canon. A lively
section of interactive harmony when counting
and an emphasis on diction are the names of the
game. Sure to be a favorite!

The Zip Zop Song—Sherry Blevins & Ruth
Peterson. Nonsense syllables, notated body
percussion and a jovial piano part all come together
to make this silly song that is said to be "the very
best medicine" for an achy heart. You can't help
but smile listening to (or singing) this lighthearted
piece, perfect for middle school voices.
