4t New BeginningsJim Papoulis. New Beginnings
was inspired by an exciting yet bittersweet time

and beginning another. Although many of us
look forward to a next chapter in life with great
anticipation, we find ourselves emotional for a
chapter that will never exist the same way again.
This piece is highly suitable for moving up or
graduation ceremonies.

One CandleAndy Beck & Brian Fisher. It's a
ready-made candle-lighting ceremony as a soloist
sings with a solitary flame, a second voice adds its
light, and gradually the whole choir illuminates the
stage with their voices and hopes of peace. One
Latin phrase, "Dona nobis pacem," is sung by the
echoing chorus, then "in the glow of candlelight I
see... peace for you and me." Choirs of all ages will
sound their very best on this at Christmas or any
time of year! Highly recommended!

FINDING
OPHELIA'S
VOICE, OPENING
OPHELIA'S HEART
Nurturing the
Adolescent Female Voice
Lynne Gackle. Lynne Gackle,
Associate Professor of Ensembles
and Assistant Choral Director at
Baylor University, has long been an
advocate for the power of singing
as a catalyst for positive change
and self-actualization in adolescent
girls. Her landmark text is a
synthesis of these ideas, reflecting
her unmatched expertise on the
working of the female voice and a
lifetime of experience and research.
Serving to enlighten and encourage
teachers and choral directors of
these students, Finding Ophelia's
Voice, Opening Ophelia's Heart
addresses the symptoms of vocal
change in the female voice, along
with physiological factors that affect
it. Appropriate choral literature,
recordings, and other educational
materials are also presented. The
included DVD, which may be used
as a teaching tool in the classroom,
provides demonstrations of the
phases of vocal maturation, voice
classification, vocal techniques,
and other pedagogical strategies,
all with the help of an all-girl choir
(ages 12-16) under the direction of
Dr. Gackle.
