Swing Low, Sweet Chariot (and Other Songs
from the Hampton Institute)Mark Hayes. Mark
Hayes' new vocal solo series, Our Spiritual Heritage,
is a reverent reflection upon the rich legacy of the
African-American spiritual. Exploring the earliest
published resources for fresh inspiration, Mark
has crafted unique arrangements for vocal solo
and piano. Some songs are immediately familiar
to modern listeners. Less familiar songs suddenly
surprise and delight with refrains or embedded
phrases that are easily recognized precursors to
modern favorites. Perhaps most intriguing of all
is the inclusion of songs, largely unknown today,
that were the most favorite spirituals of their day.
With this first anthology, Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
and Other Songs from the Hampton Institute (taking
its inspiration from the 1874 collection "Hampton
and Its Students"), amateur singers will discover
an important gateway to their knowledge of this
distinctive musical form, and professional singers
will delight in a new resource for performance in
recital halls and sanctuaries. Titles include: My
Lord, What a Morning; Peter, Go Ring Them Bells;
Rise and Shine; Some of These Mornin's and Swing
Low, Sweet Chariot.

Finding Ophelia's
Voice, Opening
Ophelia's Heart
Nurturing the
Adolescent Female Voice
Lynne Gackle. Lynne Gackle,
Associate Professor of Ensembles
and Assistant Choral Director at
Baylor University, has long been
an advocate for the power of
singing as a catalyst for positive
change and self-actualization in
adolescent girls. Her landmark
text is a synthesis of these ideas,
reflecting her unmatched expertise
on the working of the female voice
and a lifetime of experience and
research. Serving to enlighten and
encourage teachers and choral
directors of these students, Finding
Ophelia's Voice, Opening Ophelia's
Heart addresses the symptoms of
vocal change in the female voice,
along with physiological factors that
affect it. Appropriate choral literature,
recordings, and other educational
materials are also presented. The
included DVD, which may be used
as a teaching tool in the classroom,
provides demonstrations of the
phases of vocal maturation, voice
classification, vocal techniques, and
other pedagogical strategies, all with
the help of an all-girl choir (ages 12-
16) under the direction of Dr. Gackle.
