Ani Ma'amin (I Believe)arr. John Leavitt. The
text of this traditional Hebrew song comes from the
twelfth century Jewish Articles of Faith, translated
as "I believe." Sung by many Jews who were
victims of the Holocaust, the song offered comfort
and still serves as a beacon of hope for the future
of humankind. This deeply emotional setting may
be performed with piano alone or with optional
orchestration for violin, clarinet, cello and bass.

and English subtext on the verse, this has all the
minor-key ethnic flavor you could want, right up to
the final shouted "Hey!"

4 As the Rain Hides the StarsElaine Hagenberg.
"As the rain hides the stars, as the autumn mist hides
the hills..." Here is an exquisite setting of a traditional
Gaelic prayer that will bring out all the ethereal beauty
of your treble choir. As the clouds finally part, the sun
shines clearly for the first time. "Yet, if I may hold your
hand in the darkness, it is enough."

number that's loaded with African atmosphere!
The traditional Zambian words are sung throughout
with such a buoyant, rhythmic feel that you are
transported into the center of a native celebration.
The lyric translates as "All that sing have the right to
be called the children of God." The song is brief, but
may be repeated as many times as desired. Various
voicing options are possible, and African percussion
may be added as the piece progresses. Your choir
will definitely want to improvise some celebratory
whoops and shouts! Highly recommended!

4 Canta una CancionVictor C. Johnson. Opening
with a jubilant fanfare in both piano and voices, the
strong, singable melodies in this accessible original
effectively deliver the important message of the
completely Spanish text, which translates as "Sing
a song of joy, sing a song of love with joy in your

H Cantar!Jay Althouse. Cuban salsa music is
sweeping the country, and Cantar! (which means
"Sing!" in Spanish) is a stylistically authentic salsa
work for choir. The text is a combination of English
and simple, repetitive Spanish phrases, set to a
rhythmically infectious melody. It's a cross-cultural
song for general concerts, especially during
"Music In Our Schools" month. The recorded
accompaniment really sizzles!
