Loaded with excitement, this setting taken from Shakespeare's famous "The Tempest" will have audiences both entertained and amazed. A great concert closer, the rousing piano accompaniment is joined by a unique percussion ensemble (cabasa, vibraslap, guiro, ratchet, triangle, and would you believe, police whistle). Treble choirs rarely get to have this much fun. 10544117 SSAA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 4 Be With Me—Jim Papoulis. Today's society often seems to require children to perform tasks earlier and better, over-schedule life sooner, and grow up faster. Be With Me embraces the years of a child's life before becoming an adult. It also reminds us that a child's time with us is precious and passes all too quickly. "Be with me in morning sun, be with me when evening comes, be with me my precious one, before you go away." 10575207 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 4e The Beauty of the Night—Laura Farnell. This lovely work for SSA voices expressively depicts the beauty of the evening sky as it deepens from the crimson twilight until the silver threads of moonlight stream down to the earth below. An inspired selection for treble honor choirs and contest/festival performances. Extraordinary! 10605440 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 e The Beginning of Love—Greg Gilpin. Selected quotes of Mother Teresa are woven together to create a stunning lyric of love and compassion. With melody and harmony weaving above a flowing piano accompaniment and optional violin, the new SATB and SAB voicings also contain a short narrative at the beginning and the end focusing on Mother Teresa. This is an extremely moving work for choirs at all levels! 10588531 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10588532 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 10437444 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 10453999 Multi-Song Accomp. CD . . . . . 44.99 4e Bernyanyi Bersama—Jim Papoulis. Bernyanyi Bersama was written for the 2014 Saint Angela Children and Youth Choir Festival in Bandung, Indonesia. Using the theme of diversity in harmony, the language of Indonesia (Bahasa) is woven into the music to celebrate both American and Indonesian harmony and rhythm. "Sing together, young people, open your hearts to the world." Percussion parts included. 10602841 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 4 Bird of Hope—Kevin Nicoletti. Ella Wheeler Wilcox's poem suggests that the bird of hope not soar too high or sing too loud. Taking heed, the composer created much downward movement in the piano accompaniment, while allowing the singers to take some risks, both high and somewhat loud. This charming piece offers great melodic interest in the vocal lines. Exquisite in text and music, it is a work of depth and great rewards for better women's choirs at the high school or collegiate level. Highly recommended! 10593096 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.05 4 Boats Sail on the Rivers—Caleb Fritz. Composer Caleb Fritz has penned a delightful and charming setting of the well-known Christina Rossetti poem. Gentle and expressive, it floats along with lyrical lines and a well-crafted accompaniment. Moderate ranges help define this accessible work for treble voices. 10601710 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10648367 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27.95 4 Born in a Song—Judith Herrington. "I live in a song without words or endings, fragments of memories, murmur of harmonies..." Based on a Spanish text by Bianca Chamusco, this macaronic piece brings together Spanish and English in a unique way. It is the invigorating, inspiring text that drives the rhythm and energy of this creative song. "I live in the drum of the human heart, the space between the soaring notes..." 10602874 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.35 4 Bright Morning Stars Are Rising—Audrey Snyder. Honest, authentic, heartfelt. These are the words that come to mind with this plaintive folk setting for SSA voices. Whether performed a cappella or accompanied by guitar or piano, this selection will inspire your audience! 10588916 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10605471 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 4e The Bumblebee—Sally K. Albrecht. A true charmer! The original text cleverly hovers along the pitches of the major scale, and a slower middle section, in the parallel minor key, provides a perfect opportunity to discover and discuss tempo and tonality. Complete with staging suggestions on the video DVD, this is simply delightful for young singers - your students will want to perform it again and again! Highly recommended! 10604617 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10604579 Multi-Song Accomp. CD . . . . . 44.99 10604614 DVD-Step One! Choral Movement. . . . . . . . . . . 39.99 n Cangoma—arr. Lon Beery & Elisa Dekaney. In the Bantu language, Cangoma means drum. The text of this piece, in a Portuguese dialect, celebrates the end of slavery. Use congas, djembe, tubanos, cajon, or tom-toms to add the simple drum part. A pronunciation guide is included for this highly charged and fun-filled Brazilian folk song! 10443525 Three-Part Mixed with opt. Baritone. . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10585416 TTB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 4 Canta una Cancion—Victor C. Johnson. Opening with a jubilant fanfare in both piano and voices, the strong, singable melodies in this accessible original effectively deliver the important message of the completely Spanish text, which translates as "Sing a song of joy, sing a song of love with joy in your heart... listen to my song of peace and love!" A legato middle section provides a creative contrast to the rhythmic and fun syncopated choruses that frame it. A pronunciation guide and translation are provided. 10570500 Three-Part Mixed . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10570501 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10648425 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27.95 4t Cantate—Shane W. Dittmar. A rhythmic ostinato on "la la la la la" is a compelling element of this jazz-influenced original on the traditional Latin text. Appropriate for better high school and university choirs, it will produce a fresh, appealing a cappella sound. 10589960 SATB divisi . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00 4e Captain Jinks—Cristi Cary Miller. This 19th- century soldiers' song paints a humorous view of army life and will be a fun tongue-in-cheek novel-ty for a young male choir! Great staging and choreo- graphy adds a comedic touch to your next concert! 10544562 TB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10544563 Teaching P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 4e Caterpillar—Ruth Morris Gray. This is delightful! Based on a poem by Christina Rossetti, it is a wonderful teaching piece as well as an entertaining concert feature. A playful piano accompaniment and agile choral parts reflect the inching of a caterpillar in motion. Sensible two-part writing allows every singer to take a turn on the main melody as well as a contrasting counterline. Highly recommended! 10590228 Two-Part. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10604579 Multi-Song Accomp. CD . . . . . 44.99 4 Caverns in the Clouds—Shayla Blake.
