Bach's Suite No. 3 in B minor is brief - only 36 measures long - but it is a showcase for two-part male choirs. With optional notes to fill out some chords, your men's ensemble will sound stellar, sophisticated, and elegant when performing this at any concert or festival, even at the high school level. (Pronunciation guide and translation are provided.) 10585390 TB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 Let It Go (from "Frozen")—arr. Mac Huff. The stand-out single from Disney's "Frozen" has an epic feel and an unmistakable sense of wonderment and joy that will take your concert to new levels! Performed by Idina Menzel in the film, it is an absolute winner that your choirs will love to sing! 10605883 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10438571 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 4 Lonesome Road—arr. Ruth Elaine Schram. This outstanding spiritual setting was originally published as a male vocal solo in the collection Traveling On. It works beautifully for tenor-bass choir, with a sensitive piano accompaniment, comfortable ranges, and nice teaching moments. The longing quality of the text is so appropriate for guys to sing with an expressive, mellow tone. 10586914 TTB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 4 Matona Mia Cara—Orlando di Lasso/ arr. Patrick Liebergen. Orlando di Lasso's tuneful villanelle is set here for TBB voices, with Italian text and English subtext. Carefully edited, it is shorter in duration than the original SATB score and includes an optional piano accompaniment. Written in a style that is rustic and light, with energized syllables of "dire, dire, don, don, don," this is an excellent feature for developing male voices! 10592964 TBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 4 A Musical (from "Something Rotten!")— arr. Andy Beck. Everyone will enjoy this Tony- nominated number from "Something Rotten!" While trying their best to compete with the wildly successful William Shakespeare, the Bottom brothers, Nick and Nigel, follow the advice of Nostradamus and create a play in which an actor is saying his lines, and "out of nowhere, he just starts singing." A terrific showcase for concert and show choirs! 10604239 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10604240 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29.99 4 My Old Kentucky Home—Stephen Foster/ arr.

CD . . . . . . . 44.99 4 O Vos Omnes—Ruth Morris Gray. This distinctive setting of the mournful scriptural text begins with an introspective, chant-like introduction that belies the fiery torrent of personal frustration and rage to come. A beautiful legato section provides contrast before building anew, taking us to a dynamically intense finale. A stunning, dramatic showcase for concert or festival! 10602826 TTB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 Omnia Sol (Let Your Heart Be Staid)— Z. Randall Stroope. This is simply too good not to consider for your choir. Omnia sol temperat, "the sun warms everything," comes from a verse of Latin found in "Carmina Burana." The composer's English text speaks to the human need to anchor words of love and commitment in the hearts of those who have been pillars along life's way. An important contribution to the choral literature! 10590499 TBB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10590500 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.95 10068270 Instrumental Parts Brass . . . . . 29.95 10068270E Instrumental Parts Brass ePrint 29.95 4 One Song—Marvin Hamlisch & Alan & Marilyn Bergman/arr. Mark Hayes. "If we all sing one song, one song of love, one song of peace, one song to make all our troubles cease..." This pop song from 1991 sings so beautifully for choir in this stirring, soulful arrangement, it is an absolute must for graduation, music advocacy, or any other concert theme. An optional opening solo lets you feature your best singer, while solid choral writing throughout leads to an uplifting and inspiring finish "...if we all sing one song!" Highly recommended! 10604575 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00 10604576 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29.99 4 The Parting Glass—arr. Thomas Juneau. The Parting Glass, a traditional Scottish and Irish folk song, is traditionally sung at the end of a gathering of friends. This setting reflects the tender yet wistful feelings of a group of friends who know that the time has been spent well in good company. This will make an outstanding concert closer, especially if performed with the optional part for flute or violin! 10583521 TBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 4 Pineywood Mountain—Jay Althouse. Want a fresh folk song that doesn't sound like an old folk song? This is it! Words inspired by, and borrowed from, traditional American folk songs are set to sprightly new music, resulting in a hand-clappin', knee-slappin', highly rhythmic original with an authentic folk-song sound. Add the optional string bass and snare drum to bring out the folk-dance feel. Your singers will have a great time with this! 10581950 TBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10604579 Multi-Song Accomp. CD . . . . . . . 44.99 4 Praise Ye the Lord—Dan Davison.

Roger Emerson. Everyone knows this as a cowboy song, but Roger Emerson has uncovered a quality in it that no one knew was there. Set in a haunting, contemporary style, the tune takes on a freshness that brings it into our time. The a cappella middle section is especially beautiful! 10542655 TBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10495637 Teaching P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 4 She Loves You—John Lennon & Paul McCartney/arr. Andy Beck. Taking their inspiration from Elvis and the Isley Brothers, The Beatles sang their infectious "yeah, yeah, yeah" hook all the way to a record-setting "top five" chart position in 1964 - five Beatles songs in the top five positions in the same week! This rockin' and rhythmic arrangement is perfectly crafted for success! 10604588 TB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00 10604589 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27.99 Sorida—Rosephanye Powell.

With both secular and sacred texts, this is a tour de force for festivals or accomplished choirs and a totally unforgettable musical experience! 10558326 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 4 Stand by Me—arr.
