H Sure on this Shining Night—Morten Lauridsen.
"Sure on this shining night of starmade shadows
round, kindness must watch for me this side the
ground..." In this third movement of his song cycle
Nocturnes, Morten Lauridsen's flowing music
captures all of the beauty and wonder of James
Agee's poem. Set for accompanied SATB voices
(with some divisi), and now for TTBB, this is a
superb composition for better choirs!

He Take Me to the Water—arr. Rollo Dilworth. The
traditional spirituals Down by the Riverside and
Wade in the Water are joined with the original Take
Me to the Water to create a gospel-style choral
that packs a triple punch! This is exceptionally well
done! Highly recommended!

4e Thankful—arr. Mark Hayes. Recorded by Josh
Groban, this inspirational song has a timeless
message that everyone can relate to. "It's up to
us to be the change, and even though we all can
still do more, there's so much to be thankful for..."
Mark Hayes' moving arrangement is beautifully
orchestrated, adding to the rich vocal harmonies
that set the exquisite melody and text. Perfect for
every choir at any time year, including graduation
and church dedications.

4e There is Peace—Jim Papoulis. The essence
of this work, in a world of conflict and violence,
is the need for a deep understanding that peace
can come from all of us. After the opening phrase,
"Look in the eyes of the children, feel the touch
of their hands, there is peace," the verse enters,
with a full, yet still gentle sound. The refrain is
more celebratory, followed by a quiet bridge and
an ending which is calm and introspective, much
like the opening.

4t Three A Cappella Latin Settings—Jerry Estes.
Developing choirs will be motivated and engaged
by this unique set of three, short, original a
cappella pieces. Written in contrasting styles, the
opening Gloria In Excelsis Deo is exuberant and
features a soloist or small group. An expressive
Et In Terra Pax is followed by a vibrant and
rhythmic Alleluia. Whether performed individually
or as a set, at Christmas, or in a general concert
setting or festival at school or church, this
wonderful teaching piece has many valuable uses.
A Learning Resource Page is included.

H Three Quotes by Mark Twain—Andrea
Ramsey. This delightfully provocative piece for
treble voices is based on three very short, witty
texts by Mark Twain: The Silent Fool; Telling the
Truth and My Dear Mother. The music changes
with each short section, moving from ragtime to a
waltz and finally to the blues. Great fun for all!

4tTongo—arr. Greg Gilpin. This traditional canoe
e song from Polynesia sounds very impressive with
just two voice parts, hand claps, and percussion
instruments. The echoing voice parts suggest
people communicating from canoe to canoe as
they travel between islands. The Polynesian text
is simple, with a pronunciation guide. This is a
refreshing change of pace in the multicultural
category! Highly recommended!

H Tres Cantos Nativos—arr. Marcos Leite. This
exciting work is freely based on three melodies
sung by the Kurao tribe - a group of native
Brazilian indians living in the forests of northern
Brazil. Percussive rhythms and vocal layers are
enhanced with live percussion instruments and
effective hand claps to bring unique musical
colors to your concert hall. A popular choice for
festivals and all-state choirs.

H True Light—Keith Hampton. Opening phrases
of the traditional spiritual This Little Light of Mine
launch this exciting work into Keith Hampton's
original words and music, which feature a sixteen-
measure soprano solo sung to lines from tenth-
century poet Grigor Narekatzi's Book of Mournful
Chants: "Don't let the light that You've given me
die, And don't desert my mind. But let the one
who serves You Praise You again and again." The
repeated responses "He lives in us as True Light"
and "God gave the world True Light" give solid
impact to every phrase. School and church choirs
will revel in the spiritual depth and driving rhythmic
feel of this extraordinarily soulful choral!

t Tshotsholoza (Go Forward)—Jeffery L. Ames.
Now available for mixed or men's voices, this
rousing arrangement of the popular African
freedom song has become a standard in the choral
repertoire. With call-and-response vocals, African
text, and rhythmic percussion accompaniment,
it transports the listener to South Africa, where
the song is often referred to as the "unofficial
anthem" of the country. It was used in the
soundtrack of the Oscar-nominated movie
"Invictus," and served as South Africa's "battle
call" at the 2010 World Cup. This is essential
multicultural programming! Highly recommended!

Tundra—Charles A. Silvestri & Ola Gjeilo. Majestic
scenes from Ola Gjeilo's native Norway inspired
Charles Silvestri's text for this contemporary
tone poem. The words and music are fused in a
poignant, lyrical way to convey the intense beauty
of the landscape. An excellent winter feature or
festival choice for mature women's choirs.

a cappella choir!

tender setting of the traditional Latin text that
features delicate melodic lines and a fluid
accompaniment. The contrasting middle section
provides interest and movement, and the echoed
phrases, independent vocal lines, and limited
ranges allow for it to be easily mastered for
concert or festival. A pronunciation guide and
translation are included.

H When I Close My Eyes—Jim Papoulis &
Francisco Nunez. "When I close my eyes then
I can see that I am not afraid." This song of
confidence and hope for young voices resonates
with positive lyrics, a strong melody and an
expressive accompaniment for piano and cello.
Written in ABA form, the message is enhanced
with the contrasting middle section that is a clear
declaration of belief in oneself. An enriching choral
statement that we recommend very highly!

concert closer! "A sound of hope, a sound of
peace, a sound that celebrates and speaks what
we believe. A sound of love, a sound so strong. It's
amazing what is given when we share a song. This
is why we sing..." You won't find a better song
than this one for combined choirs celebrating the
joy of music! Highly recommended!

memorable melody from Copland's "Promise of

song. This arrangement takes the masterwork and
makes it attainable by any size and caliber choir.
It has very little divisi, great vocal ranges and a
supportive piano accompaniment. Impressive in
concert or festival settings. Don't miss it!
