brings understanding to the poignant text by the

Clouds—Zach Sobiech/ed. Greg Gilpin.
After being given a year to live, 17-year-old Zach
Sobiech wrote a powerful goodbye song that quickly
gained international attention in the form of celebrity
tribute videos and other high-profile covers. Zach
passed away in 2013, but his legacy lives on in this
positive message of hope. "And maybe someday, I'll
see you again. We'll float up in the clouds and we'll
never see the end..."

Homage—Z. Randall Stroope. Each of us
is, in large part, the embodiment of the many
experiences and people who have sculpted our
lives. Our strength, wisdom, courage, and tears are
all products of that unique blend of our associations

Hope—Greg Gilpin & Pamela Stewart.

described through the phases of life, such as a
newborn's cry, the laughter of children, the ashes
of the fire of love that has died, the quiet comfort of
a dream. Set to haunting and dynamic music with
piano or optional orchestration, the gorgeous work
comes to a moving conclusion: "Hope is not lost;
hope is not gone. It is not dead; it still lives on. Hope
will arise!"

contribution to the concert repertoire for more
discerning choirs!

Jenny—Ryan Kerr & Nick Myers.
Fluid vocal lines and a sensitive text shine in this
powerful, heartfelt recollection of a lost loved one.
Perfectly capturing the essence of love that lives
forever, it is at the same time both touching and
haunting. For a cappella choirs, this will be warmly
received in concert or memorial performances.
"Quietly the strain falls out of tune. Shadows steal
across a lonely moon. I miss you so..."

Kyrie (from "Memorial")—Rene Clausen.
Breathtaking. Exquisite. This powerful prayer
for peace and mercy is sheer beauty. Layers of
sound, color and texture weave seamlessly into an
intricate tapestry of devotion. From the larger work,
"Memorial," written in response to the events of
September 11, 2001, Kyrie is a moving, emotional
plea for peace.

Lullaby—Daniel Elder. This contemporary
concert/festival piece is truly inspired, in music and
text. "Away, where the sunlight is beaming through a
deep, cloudless blue, and the treetops are gleaming
with a fresh morning dew..." Appropriate for any
occasion, including memorials, it is a stunning work!

A Lullaby—Ryan Murphy. The poetry of Eugene
Field is captured beautifully in this original work.
The words of the lullaby speak both to a child falling
asleep and to a child who "does not hear his mother's
song." The lilting triple meter and the movement
of the piano accompaniment imitate rocking. Add
the optional strings for a lush effect. "And as I sing,
my sweet, to you, oh, would the lullaby I sing - the
same sweet lullaby he knew while slumbering on this
bosom too - were borne to him on angel's wing! So
hushaby - O hushaby." Highly recommended!

O Nata Lux—Tom Porter. Fluid melodic lines
depict the gentle birthing of light from light in this
reverent setting of the classic Latin text. Poignant
harmonies support the interwoven countermelodies,
creating layers of sound that climax in the final
refrain and fade into sweet reflection on the repeated
phrase, "O nata lux."

Omnia Sol (Let Your Heart Be Staid)—
Z. Randall Stroope.
This composition by Z.
Randall Stroope is simply too good not to consider
for your mixed or treble choir. The composer's
English text speaks to the human need to anchor
words of love and commitment in the hearts of
those who have been pillars along life's way. Omnia
sol temperat, "the sun warms everything," comes
from a verse of Latin found in "Carmina Burana." An
important contribution to the choral literature!

TRIBUTES AND MEMORIALS
Sometimes we all need the healing power of music to help us come to terms with loss, or to
help us find the words to honor those whose heroic sacrifices touch our lives. Each of these
outstanding choral works offers a special opportunity to express our deepest feelings in song.
