This heartfelt piece is elegant in its simplicity and

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 How Can I Keep from Singing?—Gwyneth
Walker. This is an old Quaker hymn dating back
to the 1800's in the United States. References
to the persecution of Friends may be heard in
the lyrics, yet faith and courage prevail. This
arrangement emphasizes the celebratory and life-
affirming aspects of the song.

e How Like a Winter—Ruth Morris Gray. "How
like a winter hath my absence been, like a winter,
from thee..." This artful setting of a text by William
Shakespeare works equally well as a winter
piece or as a secular concert work. Sing the
liquid phrases with a beautiful line and observe
the tempo nuances to attain the most expressive
performance. Haunting!

t I Am Not Yours—Z. Randall Stroope. Sara
Teasdale's immortal poem is treated lovingly in
this gorgeous choral setting. Stroope has a rare
sensitivity to poetic texts and an equally rare gift
for bringing the words to life in his music. This is a
marvelous work which will be in great demand by
mixed choirs everywhere!

n I Believe—Mark Miller. Written in lyric style, this
beautiful choral can be used for any occasion. The
sentiment of the text "I believe in the sun, even
when it's not shining" springs forth inspiration and
sends thoughts toward hope.

4 I Sing Because I'm Happy—Rollo Dilworth.
Adapted from the gospel-style interpretation of
the hymn, His Eye Is on the Sparrow, originally
performed and recorded by the Georgia Mass
Choir, this setting has been lowered a step and a
bass part added. It will be an inspirational choice
for gospel and concert choirs, and audience
participation on the hand claps is encouraged!
10451977 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95
H If Music Be the Food of Love—David
Dickau. The romantic style of this setting is lush,
expressive, and perfectly fashioned for the text.
"If music be the food of love, sing on, sing on, sing
on till I am filled with joy..." The work is a superior
choice as a concert finale or any time a selection
with a "music" theme is appropriate.
5570528 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.80
4e Imbakwa—Jim Papoulis. Beautifully melodic,
with a great beat and a great message, this
"world music" piece has a text in Swahili which
translates as, "We have a right." Imbakwa was
written for the score of a film about an organization
benefiting orphans in Tanzania. The organization,
called TunaHAKI, uses the arts to empower
children to have the future they deserve. A hand-
drum part is included in the choral score. Highly
recommended!

He Inscription of Hope—Z. Randall Stroope. A
profoundly moving text, written on a cellar wall
during the rise of Nazi Germany, joins with original
music to create a deeply emotional expression
of hope for all mankind. With brief narration and
the echo of a Russian folk melody, this is an
important contribution to the concert repertoire
for more discerning choirs!

n It Takes a Village—Joan Szymko. The familiar
African saying, "It takes a village to raise a child,"
is appropriately set to tribal-sounding music in
this marvelous cross-cultural feature. A great
closer, this piece is a proven audience favorite!

H J'entends Le Moulin—arr. Emily Crocker.
Hear the steady sound of the mill wheel in this
brisk setting of the French Canadian folk ong,
which uses alternate French and English text. "I
hear the windmill, tick-a tick-a tack-a..." Use the
pronunciation guide on the inside cover or the
Teaching P/A CD to practice the French lyrics.
This is easy and fun to sing!

4 Jubilate Deo—Peter Anglea. This superb setting
of the traditional Latin text from Psalm 100 fairly
dances off the page in joy! Singable, natural-
sounding mixed meter, a memorable melodic
line, and a buoyant feel throughout make this one
of the most appealing and musically satisfying
works you will hear. Highly recommended!

appealing number for a wide variety of uses
from smaller choirs through massed choir
performances.

4t Kuimba!—Victor C. Johnson. This exuberant
African-style original work is an invitation to let
music be our guide and sing together with joyful
hearts. You'll want to use the optional percussion
parts with this a cappella piece, to help establish
a rhythmic groove for the easy vocal ostinato
patterns. A pronunciation guide is included.
