Developing choirs will be motivated and engaged by this unique set of three, short, original a cappella pieces. Written in contrasting styles, the opening Gloria In Excelsis Deo is exuberant and features a soloist or small group. An expressive Et In Terra Pax is followed by a vibrant and rhythmic Alleluia. Whether performed individually or as a set, at Christmas, or in a general concert setting or festival at school or church, this wonderful teaching piece has many valuable uses. A Learning Resource Page is included. 10512811 Three-Part Mixed . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 e Three Contemporary Latin Settings—Jerry Estes. 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 easy, repeated Latin phrases come to life with fresh musical ideas. 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!

A sense of travel is created by the stately 6/8 time signature, and syncopations bring an air of excitement and wonder to the tale. 10615990 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3.10 Christmas Selections " You are always my first call!" — Molly Phillips Grogan Music erapist-BC, Dallas, TX
