Johannes Brahms/arr. Gerald Custer.
One of Brahms' best-known love songs is now
available in this sensitively scored arrangement, which
retains the harmonic richness of the original while
making the work accessible to high school choirs.
The strophic setting takes voice leading into careful
consideration. IPA pronunciation guide is provided for
the German text.

Adiemus
Karl Jenkins.
Although this is an original work, the words, which
simulate a tribal language, give it a world-music
feeling. In fact, the chant-like character of the piece
almost makes you feel as though you are taking part
in a tribal ritual. A compelling work that has become
popular in festivals and regional choral activities. Now
available in SA voicing.

Agnus Dei
Christi Jones.
This lovely original pairs a simple setting of the
traditional Latin text with a countermelody in the
accompaniment of Bach's Air on the G String. The
Air appears first in the piano introduction, then in
the optional descant for either voices or flute. Short
and very sweet, it will give your beginning singers
an opportunity to sing beautifully crafted sustained
phrases that fit perfectly with Bach's masterpiece.
Highly recommended!

Ain' a That Good News!

Precise articulation of the text, dynamics, and

singers. Fun for any contest or festival performance!

All My Trials
arr. Gwyneth Walker.
A very poignant song. Phrases such as "Hush little
baby, don't you cry, you know your mama was born
to die," or "Oh my brothers, I must leave you here
behind," view the approach of death in terms of
those left behind. The accompaniment of repeated
eighth-note chords is marked as if trembling or
sobbing. Although the harmonic language is tonal and
consonant almost entirely throughout the song, a few
dissonances appear near the end, reflecting the pain
of parting.

All My Trials
arr. Ruth Elaine Schram.
"If religion was a thing that money could buy, the rich
would live, and the poor would die..." Now available
for SATB choirs, this soulful, accompanied setting
of the traditional spiritual was originally published in
1998 for young and developing voices. Not difficult,
with a sensitive, tasteful accompaniment and effective
dynamics, this is an excellent spiritual setting for
younger mixed choirs!

All Night, All Day
arr. Andy Beck.
"...angels watchin' over me, my Lord." This superb
a cappella arrangement of the traditional spiritual is a
guaranteed success! The basses sing an independent
line, which provides a rhythmic backdrop for triadic
harmony in the upper voices, while contoured
dynamics add interest. The optional shaker and conga
parts are a great addition! Highly recommended!

Alway Something Sings
Dan Forrest.
The grandeur of Ralph Waldo Emerson's "skyborn
music" text creates a canvas for Dan Forrest's
magnificent sonorities in this superb selection for choir
and soloist with piano or optional strings. Breathtaking
in its beauty and imagery!

Amani (Peace)
Audrey Snyder.
The Swahili text of this African-style original is a joyful
celebration of peace, set for a cappella voices with
shaker and drums (included in the score). Somewhat
reminiscent of O Sifuni Mungu, it has everything you
want for a truly festive cross-cultural experience! Now
available in a 2-part voicing. Highly recommended!

An Die Musik
Franz Schubert/ed. Craig Courtney.
These transcriptions, for mixed, treble and male
choirs, of this famous Schubert song offer the perfect
material for teaching free, bel canto-style singing,
German diction, and "arch and taper" phrasing. With
its strophic form and relatively simple melody, the
piece can be easily learned, allowing time to focus
on and develop expressive phrasing and musicality.
English translation is included in this wonderful
introduction to Schubert Lieder for high school choirs!
Highly recommended!

And This Shall Be for Music
Mary Lynn Lightfoot.
"And this shall be for music, when no one else is
near, such a fine song for singing, the rare song
to hear!" And such a fine song this is, through
the marriage of memorable music to Robert Louis
Stevenson's artful text. Extremely expressive,
complemented by luscious harmonies and a rich
accompaniment, this lovely work will showcase choirs
of all ages. Highly recommended!

The Arrow and the Song
Richard Waters.
There is some divisi in this lovely setting of the
beloved Longfellow poem, but it is well within the
abilities of many high school a cappella choirs. With
beautiful harmonies and accessible ranges, it will be a
rewarding experience in concert! "I shot an arrow into
the air, it fell to earth, I knew not where..."

As the Rain Hides the Stars
Elaine 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."

Ave Maria
J.S. Bach & Charles Gounod/
arr. Russell Robinson.
Charles Gounod's beloved Ave Maria, based on
a prelude from J.S. Bach's The Well-Tempered
Clavier, is now available for developing choirs! The
melody passes through all the voice parts, while the
flowing piano accompaniment provides support. An
excellent way to introduce not one, but two master
composers, this is essential repertoire for your
students! Highly recommended!
