build up Zion's walls!"

n Hand Me down My Silver TrumpetJoy Webb/
ed. Ashworth. This delightful spiritual arrangement
is an excellent way to introduce two-part harmony
to less experienced singers because of the natural
call-and-response of the refrain. The optional parts
for trumpet and percussion (cued in the score) will
add nice color and excitement to your performance.

H How Can I Keep from Singing?Greg Gilpin.
Greg has taken the traditional Quaker text and
positively supercharged it with his own gospel-
styled 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. Highly recommended!

n Hush! Somebody's Callin' My Namearr.
Rollo Dilworth. "Oh, my Lord, oh, my Lord, what
shall I do?" A steady walking bass line, expressive
gospel harmonies, and haunting vocal effects
make this arrangement of the traditional spiritual
truly exceptional for young choirs! There's even a
reference to "follow the drinking gourd" in the lyrics
- a teaching moment for Black History Month. As a
"first spiritual" for elementary or middle school voices,
this is not to be missed! Highly recommended!

Ht Hush! Somebody's Calling My NameBrazeal
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!

tempo spiritual setting for a cappella voices rejoices
in what awaits us in heaven (beautiful robes, new
shoes, golden harps) and also pokes fun at those
who just may not be allowed through the pearly gates
- "everybody talkin' 'bout heaven ain't goin' there."
Vibrant, syncopated rhythms and a lively melody
provide ample opportunities for expressive singing!
