Concert & Festival
n Evening—Ruth Morris Gray. A wonderful
poem by Emily Dickinson comes to life in
this beautifully intricate choral work for treble
voices, which weaves multiple melodies
together into a stunning texture! "She sweeps
with many-colored brooms, and leaves the
shreds behind; Oh, housewife in the evening
West, come back, and dust, come back, and
dust the pond..." This will showcase your
choir's musicianship in fine style!

H Fairest Lady—Nick Page. This gentle lullaby
based on a nursery rhyme uses London Bridge
Is Falling Down as a descant over a soothing
original melody and accompaniment. The
peaceful moment is a loving lullaby for a fair little
lady whose mother reassures her that London
Bridge will not fall down, rather it will fly away.
Sensitive and touching.

Brumfield. This soothing piece for treble choirs

charm. It is very sweet and pretty, with a lovely
melody and harmonies. The performance notes
give a brief history of the song as well as a
phonetic alphabet key and English translation of
the French verses: "Go to sleep, Colas my little
brother, go to sleep, you will have your milk..."

4 Festival Sanctus—Victor C. Johnson. This
triumphant setting of the traditional Latin text
features a bright, energetic accompaniment and
includes a pronunciation and translation guide.

H For the Beauty of the Earth—John Rutter.
John Rutter's engaging melody over a flowing
accompaniment is equally beautiful in either the
SATB or SA treatment. If you haven't already,
consider the instrumental accompaniment for a
fresh perspective on this sacred gem. Scored
for strings, winds, harp (playable on keyboard),
and drums, it includes instrumental lines that are
as lovely as the vocal lines. A perennial favorite,
this is a tasteful blend of text and musical
expression. Vintage John Rutter.

youngest singers can enjoy singing the music of
John Rutter! "Give me wings and I'll soar like an
eagle; Bear me up, till I float in the blue; Give me
mountains to climb, give me poems to rhyme,
Give me dreams and I'll make them come true."
This beautiful, inspiring message will encourage
young musicians to sing their hearts out at
graduation or any time. "We can change the old
world to new."

"running" accompaniment, reflect the longing for
freedom. The dynamics are especially effective
in this setting that is perfect for intermediate high
school choirs.

4 Go Down Moses—arr. Thomas Keesecker.
"Tell ol' Pharoah to let my people go!" What a
creative way to introduce this spiritual to your
young singers! Call-and-response vocals, lots
of unison singing, a little drama, and a cool, laid-
back groove come together in this memorable
arrangement.

4 Good News!—arr. Lloyd Larson. This joyous
combination of two traditional spirituals features
a quote of Swing Low, Sweet Chariot and is

whose mercy lends the light of home, the smile
of friends, our gathered flock thine arms enfold
as in the peaceful days of old..." Based on a

hopeful musical prayer for the ages. Sensitive
piano stylings and lovely turns of phrase make it
a wonderful opportunity for young women to dig
deep into their lives and emotions.

Hakuna Mungu Kama Wewe—Kirk Aamot.
This popular worship song from Kenya can
be performed in a variety of ways: by adding
movement while singing, incorporating
percussion instruments into the performance,
or as a processional. Opening with a simple
unison melody, the song progresses into two
parts and finally adds a descant-like third voice
part. This is a marvelous multicultural feature for
a cappella choirs!

iTunes festival premiere
Lux Nova
Eric Whitacre. Eric Whitacre's
best-selling Lux Aurumque has been
reimagined, with a middle section of
new material from his musical "Paradise
Lost." Lux Nova works best with a pure,
balanced, shimmering tone, with strict
attention to the dynamic colors and a
slow, luscious pacing. The poetry by
Edward Esch has been translated into
Latin by the celebrated American lyricist
Charles Anthony Silvestri. As performed
at the 2014 iTunes Festival London, and
subsequently broadcast live via iTunes
to 122 countries around the world,
this is an important new work.
Duration: approximately 4:20.
