This special set of three short pieces is great for captivating and motivating developing choirs; it is now available for SATB choirs as well.

The Kyrie, with its staccato versus legato singing, contrasts with the simple, melodic ballad feel of the Adoramus Te, which in turn is contrasted with the celebratory style and energy of the Gloria in Excelsis Deo. For school or church, sung independently or as a set, for holiday use or at any time of year, this is a powerhouse for teaching and performing!

Koponen. The memorable melody from Copland's "Promise of Living" will be recognized by all in this revivalist 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.

Premiered at Lincoln Center, this exciting mixed-meter festival piece features both Latin and English versions of Psalm 130.
