Sacred Concert All Voicings medium-easy
H The Battle Hymn of the Republicarr. Peter
Wilhousky. The Wilhousky setting of this 19th
century hymn is possibly the most heartfelt
musical pronouncement of American patriotism.
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.

The Battle Hymn of the Republicarr. Lon
Beery. Now developing choirs can thrill to the
dramatic impact of this most important sacred
patriotic work! Optional baritone notes for changing
voices and optional notes for high sopranos
guarantee a big, full choral sound. You'll want to
use the recorded track or parts for two trumpets,
trombone and timpani (available separately) to add
sparkle to your performance of this outstanding
arrangement! Highly recommended!

Bring Us Peace (Da Pacem Domine)
Melchior Franck/arr. Spevacek. This lovely,
late Renaissance/early Baroque work is
complemented by a new, contemporary English
text for general use by school choirs, and also
a soaring descant which adds to the emotional
impact. The English text, a powerful call for
peace, is not intended to be a literal translation
of the original Latin (which is also included as
a performance option). Whether performed
accompanied or a cappella, this piece provides a
marvelous masterwork experience for young and
developing choirs!

4 By the WatersDave & Jean Perry. A haunting,
minor melody is passed through the choir in this
fugal treatment of an expressive psalm text.
What begins as artful simplicity develops into
lush polyphony. "By the waters of Babylon, we
sat down and wept."

l The CallDavid Neches. "Come my way my
truth and life; such a way as give us breath..."
George Herbert's famous poem is treated
with reverence in this singable setting. Unison
melodies give way to lovely, accessible and
straightforward harmonies supported by piano
accompaniment. An excellent selection for
teaching musical phrasing and unison singing to
choirs of varying abilities.

Canon GloriaMichael Haydn/arr. Moore.
Donald Moore is a master when it comes to
adapting classic canons for young voices, and this
is an excellent example of his work. A light, flowing
piano accompaniment supports singable vocal lines
on a simplified version of the traditional "Gloria"
text. The accompaniment is playable by a student
musician, as is the optional part for flute or other C
instrument. This will be a rewarding experience for
your young choir! Highly recommended!

n Cantate DominoNancy Hill Cobb. Fresh,
singable melodic lines and a logical ABA-Coda
form make this original work by Nancy Hill
Cobb a perfect choice for any two-part choir. A
pronunciation guide for the Latin is written in
the vocal parts, and performance notes are also
included. The melodies have no difficult leaps
or accidentals, which simplifies teaching, sight-
reading and memorization. Educationally, musically
and compositionally solid. An excellent choice.

Cantate DominoRuth Morris Gray. The
familiar Latin text has been set many times by
many composers, but this dynamic and rhythmic
composition rises above. Opens with a driving,
marcato theme, which is brilliantly contrasted by
the expressive, legato B section. A dramatic choral
work that delivers an impressive effect.

Cantate DominoMark Hayes. Pure energy
from start to finish, this dynamic original
features captivating syncopations, mixed meter,
polyphonic sections, and a dramatic ending.
Crafted in minor mode, it incorporates both Latin
and English lyrics, which are brought to life by the
toccata-like piano accompaniment.

l Cantate Hodie! (Sing on This Day!)John
Purifoy. This buoyant original work will be an
excellent and accessible piece for contest, festival
and concert performance, with a rhythmic, lively
refrain contrasted with a somewhat more lyrical
section. The text is a mixture of Latin and English:
"Cantate hodie! Sing on this day! ... Sing with a
jubilant song and be glad!"

Cantate Hodie! (Sing Today)Mary Lynn
Lightfoot. A very impressive opener or contest-
festival piece! Bright, fanfare-like motives,
incisive accompaniment and text in Latin
and English work together to make this work

First-rate music, with real lift and impact!
Highly recommended!

Canticum NovumJerry Estes. Alive with
energy created from its up-tempo and multi-
metered style, simple Latin text is used with
English text to celebrate music and the joy of
singing. With a supportive and rhythmic piano
accompaniment, this is excellent for contest,
concert or festival use.

H Confitemini DominoGreg Gilpin. Lush
harmonies and beautiful melodies distinguish
this strong concert or festival work. An "Alleluia"
section is both lyrical and dynamic and the optional
baritone part adds depth in the final section. This
is expressive writing from Greg Gilpin and an
excellent venue for developing choirs.

Deo Dicamus GratiasVictor Johnson.
Luscious harmonies, fluid melodies, and a
rich piano accompaniment all come together
in this inspiring and uplifting original work
for mixed chorus. Emotive and so musical at
every phrase, this is an outstanding vehicle
to display the expressive nuances of your
choir and we enthusiastically give it our

4 Dies IraeRuth Morris Gray. This is
appropriately powerful and intense! Angular
phrases and percussive attacks add to the drama
in this contemporary Latin setting of the Day of
Wrath text. A tour de force for intermediate-
level choirs, more easily accessible than classic
settings such as those by Mozart or Verdi.
Highly recommended!

n Dies Irae (Day of Wrath)D. Farrell Smith.
Employing the text from the Requiem Mass, this
dramatic, exciting, rhythmic setting propels the
angular melodies, many of which are unison,
forward. The contrasting, lyric B section allows
for a brief respite and will challenge the singers
to explore color in tone and expression. This is
sure to be a compelling piece for middle school
and young high school choirs.

H Distant LandJohn Rutter. "I see a distant
land: it shines so clear. Sometimes it seems so
far, sometimes so near." Composed in 1990 soon
after the demolition of the Berlin Wall, this deeply
expressive prayer for unity is even more gripping
since the attacks of 9/11. John's evocative
text does not center on the "distant land" and
its inherent glories, rather it emphasizes the
journey of life; the "dusty roads" that we all travel
together toward a united and free people. It's a
cry to God for strength in the journey that is timely
and profoundly moving!

4t Dominus VobiscumJacob Narverud. From
the opening unison chant to the final "Amen," this
powerful a cappella setting of the ancient Latin
text is a study in fluid motion. Treble choirs will
feel empowered when learning and performing
this lovely prayer of peace.
