"...Come sing with me! The twinkling sky casts forth its tune: O must I leave thy charms so soon? I weep with joy beneath the moon."

Divisi sections in all parts are accessible and still richly expressive with harmonic colors and sweeping dynamic contrasts. Emotional and highly effective, it is a truly magnificent setting that may be performed with band or orchestral accompaniment. It's also the one chosen most often by U.S. military ensembles. 245076 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10443554 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 244988 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.80 244897 TTBB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 945436 Concert Band . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 90.00 258038 Full Orchestra . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 85.00 Ht The Battle of Jericho—arr.

"Let us always meet each other with a smile for a smile is the beginning of love." Based on the words of Mother Teresa, this and other selected quotes are woven together to create a stunning lyric of love and compassion. Melody and harmony float above a flowing piano accompaniment and optional violin. The piece also contains a short narrative at the beginning and the end, focusing on Mother Teresa. 10437444 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 10453999 Multi-Song Accomp.

You won't want to miss this delightfully festive little piece that is a superb way to introduce a multicultural perspective into your holiday programming. Independent choral lines build a lively counterpoint over an easily mastered piano part that keeps the dance moving throughout the work. And, that accelerando at the coda will give your performance a real jolt of pleasure! For holiday concerts, or any time of year, this receives our highest recommendation! 3298641 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 3298642 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.80 3298643 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.80 10048150 TTB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.80 H Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind—John Rutter.

Victor C. Johnson. Sizzling with celebratory rhythmic energy, this African folksong loosely translates as: "Those who sing have the right to be called the children of God." The only accompanying instruments are hand drum (treble drum), djembe (bass drum), and shaker, which add authentic flavor and opportunities for improvisation. The vocal parts are easily learned due their repetition and call-and-response style. Highly recommended! 10302661 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10089711 Three-Part Mixed . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10089722 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10307386 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10307387 TTB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10089725 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.95 Ht Bonse Aba (Traditional Zambian Song)— arr. Andrew Fischer. Here is an exuberant a cappella number that's loaded with African atmosphere! The traditional Zambian words are sung throughout, with such a buoyant rhythmic feel that you are transported into the center of a native celebration. "Bonse Aba" translates as "All that sing have the right to be called the children of God." The song is brief, but may be repeated as many times as desired. Various voicing options are possible, and African percussion may be added as the piece progresses. Your choir will definitely want to improvise some celebratory whoops and shouts! Highly recommended! 10012300 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10062620 TTBB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 H Can You Hear?—Jim Papoulis & Francisco Nunez. "Can you hear my cries? I am calling out to you."

This is an inspiring way to close your concert or festival, or to set a tone for a dynamic new beginning for a season of music-making.
