by Mark Hayes of this phenomenal hit by Josh

interpretation, making this the definitive setting of
You Raise Me Up for today's choirs. With or without
the full orchestration, it is absolutely stunning!
Highly recommended!

4 You've Got a FriendCarole King/arr. Mac Huff.
Carole King's classic hit from 1971, made famous
by James Taylor, conveys a universal message of

and most universally loved friendship song ever
written. Mac Huff's arrangement is very tasteful

Ht All Ye Who Music LoveBaldassare Donato/
Spevacek. Here's a stunning original work in
Madrigal style, this is light and airy, bright and
festive. Linda has taken a clever approach to the
famous Donato text, with lilting music and word
painting, which allows the choir to "warble" with
impunity! It's a fun introduction to Madrigals for
developing voices!
3253887 Three-Part Mixed . . . . . . . . . 1.95
Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (from
"Spamalot")arr. Mac Huff. Totally cheeky
and irreverent, this tune from Monty Python's
"Spamalot" is a terrific concert feature, complete
with whistling and a kick-line ending! "When you're
chewin' on life's gristle, don't grumble." (The lyrics
are kid-friendly, with no profanity as in the original
Broadway version.) It's guaranteed to put a positive
spin on your performance! Highly recommended!

cute original with a great piano accompaniment
and an exceptionally imaginative text. This piece
is a wonderful addition to the repertoire for young
voices! Highly recommended!
10483579 Unison . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.70
n The ArgumentFrancis Nesta. Choirs will
have fun dramatizing a very familiar situation:
two people who simply cannot agree. After finally
working out a compromise, one says the wrong
thing, and the argument begins all over again!
Great musical contrast, brisk and clever verbiage
between men's and women's sections, and
staging possibilities abound.
1782556 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50
H Banquet FugueJohn Rutter. Beginning with
the lyric, "Guzzle, guzzle, guzzle, munch, munch,
gobble, gobble, chomp, pass the salt and pepper...,"
you can immediately see the possibilities for a
delightful, tongue-in-cheek fugue! Recorded by
The King's Singers on the sound track recording
of John Rutter's operetta "The Reluctant Dragon,"
this is a most enjoyable selection which ends,
unfortunately, as do many good banquets-with an
audible expression of contentment.

4 Bill Bailey (Won't You Come Home?)Hughie
Cannon/arr. Sally K. Albrecht. Kids will love this fun
partner-song arrangement of a turn-of-the-century
American parlor song. After crooning through the
familiar melody, singers will delight in the stylized
vocal slides that shape the ragtime-style counterline.
Put it all together with Sally's choreography
notes, which are included in the publication and
demonstrated on the With a Song! DVD.

Bill Bailey, Won't You Please Come Home?
arr. Greg Gilpin. What a great idea to arrange
this for a cappella voices! A classic of Dixieland
jazz since it was first published in 1902, the song
has been recorded by all the great jazz singers.
Now it sounds fresh as new in this fun, showy
arrangement. A terrific encore number or light
concert/show choir feature, it just percolates from
beginning to end! Highly recommended!

n The Bull Frogarr. Lon Beery. Your young
singers will delight in the nonsense syllables of
this clever American folksong setting! "There was
a bull frog living in the spring, sing song Polly won't
you ky-me-o. He had such a cold that he could
not sing...Kee-mo dar-ro-wah, Hee-ma-ho..."
Phonetic subtext is provided for the nonsense
words as the bull frog story unfolds. This is great
fun! Highly recommended!

Canon!Johann Pachelbel/arr. Alan Billingsley.
Would Pachelbel approve? Who knows. But
singers and audiences surely will! This rhythmic
rendition presents the famous "Canon in D" with
nonsensical scat syllables. Sing a cappella or with
the optional piano accompaniment. It's guaranteed
to be the most memorable three minutes of any
concert program.
10452877 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00
H Catch a Falling StarPaul Vance & Lee
Pockriss/Gilpin. This is an incredibly appealing
and entertaining number! The tune was a big hit
for Perry Como back in the 50's, and it's still just
as much fun today in this delightful arrangement
for two-part voices by Greg Gilpin. Opening and
closing quietly, with very effective vocal writing and
parts for claves, guiro, shaker and conga, it's a
natural for adding simple choreography or staging.
3027372 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95
n Chili Caliente! (Hot Peppers)David Giardiniere
& Joseph Martin. When it comes to jalapenos,
serranos, habaneros or chili peppers, some like
it hot, and some like it even hotter! This hilarious
novelty number blends the spicy sound of Rossini's
The Barber of Seville with a little Spanish flavor and
red-hot lyrics about peppers, salsa, and heartburn!
You might sing along on "I'm not regretting the
more I'm sweating" or be more inclined to sing
"Hot tabasco is a fiasco", but either way, everyone
gets to share in the fun. Just be sure to keep some
antacid handy when you perform this! "Caramba!"

H
Ching a Ring Chaw (and Great Gettin' Up
Mornin')arr. Linda Spevacek. These two
traditional songs fit together amazingly well in this
excellent concert/festival selection! Each voice part
becomes more independent as the arrangement
progresses, and when all the parts do their own
thing at the same time, with some "Hallelujah's"
thrown in for good measure, the result is pure
delight! Very well done!
