l Markings of GraceJohn Ferguson. While not
difficult, this setting of John Thornburg's new text
of praise to God will prove ideal for any service
remembering and affirming God's constancy.
The creative choral setting and colorful organ
accompaniment combine to paint a joyful, yet
introspective picture of God's continuing presence
in our lives. An antiphon of praise contrasts with
a lyrical melody whose text details the many
evidences of God's grace and constancy.

setting of the first verse of Psalm 115 begins with
a prayerful, litany-like character. The music builds
in intensity, leading to a joyous celebration of God's
"love and faithfulness," and a vibrantly climatic
treatment of "not to us, but to your name give glory."
The quiet opening music returns at the close.

on

and develops from there. A modulation recaps the
opening fanfare and leads into the final stanza with
a vocal descant and a florid part for a solo reed
stop on the organ.

lt Song of CreationHoward Helvey. This song
to the divine creation of the world sets part of the
Benedicite text from the U.S. Book of Common
Prayer. The four unaccompanied voice parts are
used to great effect, with phrases often beginning
in strong unison before opening out into rich and
colourful harmonies. Helvey highlights the words
through the use of homophonic textures and
changing time signatures to follow the natural
stresses of the text.

ascension yet works equally well for general use.

mastered for concert or festival. A pronunciation

l Vencera el Amor (Love Shall Overcome)
Carlos Colon-Quintana. This piece takes its
inspiration from Romans 12:21: "Do not be
overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." It
was written to commemorate the martyrdom of six
Jesuit priests and two women on the campus of
Universidad Centroamericana (UCA) in El Salvador
in 1989. It may be sung entirely in Spanish or
English, or by alternating the two languages. The
music moves through a sense of lament and ends
with a gentle proclamation of the victory of good
over evil.

Master" is exemplified in this sturdy adaptation

text reminds the church of its mission, while
stately part-writing and solid organ support lifts
the piece into the hearts of the listener. This is an
encouraging word for the church.

When Stephen Paulus passed away in
October of 2014, the music community lost
one of its most significant and expressive
voices. Mr. Paulus was a Grammy-
nominated composer, equally at home with
choral and instrumental works. He was probably best known for his
arrangements of Christmas carols performed annually by the Dale
Warland Singers. Those listed here are a small example of more than
500 works that bear his unmistakable and unique musical imprint.
