SACRED CONCERT & SPIRITUALS
Michael, Row the Boat Ashore!—arr.
Russell Robinson. Set in an island style, this
arrangement of the South Carolina Sea
Island song is very easy for developing
choirs to learn. The harmonies and
interplay between the voices are nice,
the lightly syncopated rhythms are very
catchy, and there are even some short a
cappella sections that highlight the voices
in harmony. Add the optional percussion for
added excitement!

Music Down in My Soul—arr. Moses
Hogan. Premiered at the World Choral
Symposium in Minneapolis, this gospel
praise song was inspired by the spiritual

Music in the Air—arr. Ryan Murphy. "Over
my head I hear music in the air, there must
be a God somewhere." The traditional
spiritual is a mix of hopeful lyrics about
the future, despite our current afflictions.
This setting brings an exciting new life to
the traditional melody with an active piano
part that moves the piece from lyrical to a
syncopated gospel feel without breaking
tempo or style. The choral parts employ
traditional harmonies and some divisi in
the final section to create a full-throated
celebration of life.

My Lord Is a Rock in a Weary Land!—
Robert L. Jefferson. Feature a tenor soloist
in this upbeat original gospel song for mixed
choir. The piano accompaniment brings an
energetic quality, while the text depicts
the childlike faith, joy, and trust of God's
children in the arms of their protector. It's
a dynamic choice for both concerts and
services.

My Song in the Night—Elaine Hagenberg.
This captivating arrangement highlights
the elegant sensitivity of the traditional
American folk hymn. As the melody gently
drifts through each vocal part, a newly
composed refrain gracefully soars over
a lush piano accompaniment. Finally,
a shimmering tapestry of descending
lines brings the piece to a restful and
contemplative conclusion.

My Soul's Been Anchored in the Lord—
arr. Moses Hogan. This traditional spiritual
will really come to life for your choir in this
dynamic setting! From the powerful opening
chords to the exhilarating call-and-response
sections, this is a work that has long been
a festival favorite. The SSAA version was
adapted by Rollo Dilworth and the TTBB
version by Peter Eklund.

A New Jerusalem Arise—Kyle Pederson/
ed. Dan Forrest. This striking adaptation
foretells a future free from tears, hatred, and
injustice and provides a vision of a renewed
and redeemed earth: "A New Jerusalem
arise, a new creation come alive, into the
dawning after dark, arise!" A combination
of varied musical influences is skillfully
woven together for choir, piano, and
optional instruments including cello, organ,
handbells, and drum as well as optional

Nothin' Gonna Stumble My Feet—Greg
Gilpin. Brimming with dynamic

stumble my feet!"

Nox (from "Illuminare")—Elaine
Hagenberg. The dramatic third movement
from "Illuminare" opens with the traditional
Kyrie text in a somber, forebodingly
ominous manner before exploding into a
blast of fury as the Latin text turns to night
and darkness. Accented rhythms and mixed
meter contribute to the feeling of chaos, and
the dramatic dynamic range and rhythmic
intensity increase to a glorious conclusion.
