finish, this really sparkles!

Anna Laura Page. This delightful setting of the
cherished hymn makes a splendid selection for
older elementary choirs or any choir of unison
or unison/2-part voices. After the familiar ROYAL
OAK tune is stated on stanza 1, a new melody
spotlights stanza 2. The two melodies then
join together on stanza 3 in traditional partnersong fashion before concluding with a final
restatement of the timeless refrain. Optional flute
and finger cymbals sweetly compliment the piano
accompaniment during the song's introduction,
interludes, and conclusion.

Anne Shafferman. Here is a marvelous pairing
of Amazing Grace with the beloved baroque
classic, Pachelbel's Canon! The baroque canon
accompanies as the voices sing Amazing Grace in
4/4. Opening with unison voices, it flows easily to
rich part writing, closing in inventive counterpoint
with the canon bass line, the Amazing Grace
melody, and a soaring soprano descant "Alleluia."
Inventive and very creative!

The beautiful, historic, harvest hymn Sing To The

the jazz-swing style, and will excel on the refrain as
two melodies partner together.

Here I Am, Lord is one of those few choice anthems
where text, melody, harmony, vocal lines, indeed
all aspects of the music harmoniously combine in
creating a work of art. The optional bass part makes
this equally effective for SAB and SATB choirs alike.

Greg has taken the traditional Quaker text and
positively supercharged it with his own gospelstyled music in this marvelous new look at a
timeless American poem. This one has it all - a
wide-open solo for your best gospel singer, an
accompaniment that's fine as is, or can be
embellished at will by your pianist, and hand
claps from the very first measure that'll quickly
spread through your audience or congregation. A
joyous gospel experience!

Littleton. This Quaker song is one of the strongest
pentatonic melodies and texts ever written. In this
beautiful unison setting, the melody is surrounded
by a flowing yet supportive accompaniment that
heightens the expressive text without overshadowing
it. An outstanding arrangement!

Bill Wolaver/arr. Zaloudik. A fun piece with depth
and a strong message, this teaches children the
importance of loving others as themselves. Set
with a Caribbean feel, it has a solo feature that can
easily be performed by a group of singers. Taken
from Proverbs 17:17, this is a great learning tool,
so meaningful yet so easy, and such a delight to
sing! Highly recommended!

H Gaudeamus HodieNatalie Sleeth. This 30year commemorative edition of a classic Sleeth
melody will be welcome with teachers and church
choir directors alike. Talk about infectious! Layered
melodies and simple calypso rhythms are enhanced
with Latin percussion instruments and a dancing
piano-four-hands accompaniment. Natalie's unique
gift was to capture the essence of musical style with
simple, clean lines - you'll find the P/A CD a plus,
but even more fun is that the piano part can be
played by two student pianists.

Dennard. This is the most appealing arrangement
of a spiritual that has been done in a long, long
time! The beginning employs a unique treatment
of the word "Hush" that emphasizes the last
two letters of the word in a remarkably effective
way. Including dramatic unison passages and a
short solo section with characteristic background
figures, this is exceptionally easy to put together.
It's guaranteed to become a favorite of your choir
and a highlight of any performance!
