Although the text is taken from the Marian O Antiphons, which celebrate the onset of the Christmas season, this a cappella work is by no means limited to performance at Christmas. As the work progresses, a sense of echo begins, offering treble ensembles a chance to sing in a majestic, independent style.

The optional antiphonal section and homophonic harmonies are perfect for choirs just venturing into part-singing. A fantastic festival selection. 10602971 Unison/Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 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! 10602824 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10602825 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10602826 TTB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 4t Ohtul (Evening)—Paert Uusberg.

Translation and pronunciation guide for the Estonian language are provided. 10593353 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.40 4 Old Dan Tucker—arr. Russell Robinson. Here's a flexibly voiced arrangement of the foot-stompin', hand-clappin' American folk song that is perfect for middle school choirs. The words always get laughs, as the title character washes his face in a fryin' pan and combs his hair with a wagon wheel. Fans of Old Dan never had so much fun! 10582869 Two-Part Mixed or Three-Part Mixed . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 4 The Old Mill—Kenneth Riggs. Rigg's intriguing setting of this poignant, reflective poem by Thomas Dunn English features an accompaniment that emulates flowing water and the turning of the mill wheel.

This is truly a special piece of music you won't want to miss. 10601729 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10647355 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27.95 He 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! 10006501 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10006502 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10590499 TBB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10590500 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.95 10068270 Instrumental Parts Brass . . . . . 29.95 4 One Voice—Tom Shelton & Maribeth Yoder- White.
