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

Coast region. This setting by Conspirare
conductor Craig Hella Johnson is powerful
in its emotional impact.

Rise, My Soul—arr. Susan LaBarr. Rich
melodic lines and fragments form the basis
for a delicious counterpoint in this traditional
folk hymn arrangement. The harmonies are
at once modern and tasteful, with elements
of tone-painting and melismatic treatment of
the word "rise" throughout. Yet, it retains the
historical feel of this joyful American song in
an a cappella style that is worthy of study
and performance. Beautiful!

Silence! Frenzied, Unclean Spirit—arr.
Keith Kalemba. This arrangement was born
out of a need for a simple choral reflection
on the Gospel of Mark 1:21-28. Jesus
drives out an unclean spirit from a man in
the synagogue. The hymn addresses the
unclean spirit; the sturdiness of the Latvian
folk tune
KAS DZIEDAJA provides the basis
for the setting of the hymn.

Sing We Merrily—Howard Helvey. This

Sometimes Our Only Song Is Weeping—
David M. Cherwien. The powerful text and
haunting tune of this hymn are masterfully
set for choir, solo, cello, and optional

chords leading to full ensemble singing.
The cello beautifully complements the
singing and weaves a poignant sighing
motive throughout.

Source of All Healing—Michael John
Trotta. This outstanding original anthem
quietly brings the listener into a prayerful
time seeking wholeness. Recalling
miracles of healing, the response is to
ask for healing in body and soul. Slightly
discordant harmonies recall sin and
pain before a beautiful harmonic refrain
responds, "Come, Holy Jesus, abide with
me now." A wide dynamic range brings the
inspired words to life, and the ministry of the
message speaks to any worship gathering
with firm assurance.

Splendor (from "Illuminare")—Elaine
Hagenberg. The opening movement from
the larger work "Illuminare" set on Saint
Ambrose's Latin text radiates majestic
energy that heralds the arrival of Light and
a joyful "Gloriae" section. A brief contrasting
section of legato singing brings a peaceful
release before returning to the vibrant
momentum present in the opening. A
wonderful work that stands on its own as a
strong statement for mixed choirs.

love into the world to light the dark.

Surely He Has Borne Our Griefs—David
Lasky. This brief a cappella motet can fit as
a reflection or response during Lent or Holy
Week services. It also has multiple uses
during a service as an offertory, meditative
reflection, or solemn response. The musical
setting captures the depth of the expressive
scripture from Isaiah 53:4.

Teach Us, Good Lord, to Serve Thee—

tabernacle." The opening fanfare returns
for a triumphant conclusion.

Trinity Song—Katie Wills. Appropriate for
Holy Trinity, this melodious, poetic title can
be used at services that include themes of
creation, praise, and unity. Its joyous refrain
is easily learned. The four verses, which
end in a compelling doxology, are scored
in rhythmic, flexible voicing. The refrain
has more independence of vocal writing,
including echo effects in the inner voices
and full harmony.

Ubi Caritas—Michael John Trotta. The
beloved Latin text is set in an elegantly
simple texture with conservative ranges.
Straightforward rhythms and moments
of release create a tapestry of sound
that surrounds the chant line. In a
variety of voicings with or without piano
accompaniment, the beautiful modern
harmonies and cluster chords create an
artistic setting that is equally appropriate for
service use or the concert stage.

DIVINUM
MYSTERIUM
tune, later echoed by the
choir. The folk-like original music weaves
seamlessly with the ancient melody before
coming to a delicate close. Reproducible
instrumental parts are included. Highly
recommended!

choral writing to be always at the fore. Men
and women are each given moments to
shine, and the ensemble writing is solid and
nuanced. A much-needed ministry tool.
