Rain Music
Victor C. Johnson.
This forward-moving, rhythmically driven music enhances the dramatic, image-
laden text of Kentucky-born poet and playwright Joseph S. Cotter, Jr. Shifting
mixed meter is very effective in giving this selection a dance-like quality. Close
harmonies, especially in the contrasting middle section, and effective unison,
two-, three- and four-part writing throughout heighten the musical effect.
Optional parts for rain stick and djembe.

Said the Rain
Amy F. Bernon.
"Said the rain to the child, "I will nourish you. I'll make you a world that's all in
bloom... and the sun will follow soon." The rain sings gently in the narrative of
this text, and a child responds with a grateful reply to the rain for its abundant
gifts. A gentle motif is presented in the piano accompaniment and the pleasant
harmonic progression and peaceful setting let the message of the song shine
through. A learning resource page to apply this piece to the teaching standards
is also included.

Sanctus
Sally K. Albrecht.
An accessible choral setting featuring a one-octave melody, imitative textures,
independent vocal parts, and an easily learned Latin text make this an ideal
selection for developing choirs. The interplay between the voices encourages
balanced choral singing with an opportunity for every part to enjoy singing the
melodic material. A wonderful teaching piece to emphasize pure vowels, legato
phrasing and musicality. Simply stunning.

melodies in Patterson's seamless style are sure to evoke a thoughtful response
from both singers and audience members. Appropriate for any concert
