Pie JesuMary Lynn Lightfoot. The traditional
Latin text is set to a haunting melody in
this reverent, deeply moving choral work.
Composed in memory of the children who
perished in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing,
it is easily singable by young choirs as well as
more experienced school or church choirs. An
excellent pronunciation guide/translation is

murmured chant on "Dona Eis Requiem" echoes
behind the vocal parts, creating a spine-chilling
effect. Magnificent!

n Psallite Hodie!Victor Johnson. Bright
syncopations, mixed meter, and a contrasting,
slower middle section distinguish this original

l
Psalm of EarthJames M. DesJardins. With the
piano and violin setting the mood prior to the voices
entering, the first line of text joins with the flowing
accompaniment to take the listener on a journey
through the wonder of creation that surrounds us.
Written for more advanced two-part treble or SA
choirs, the subtle harmonic surprises in the vocal
lines and accompaniment reflect a touch of the
unexpected along this journey.

A PsalmAndy Beck. Composed as a special
commission for the North Carolina All-State
Honors Chorus, this contemporary concert work is
satisfying from start to finish. The exuberant music
provides a joyful foundation for a text inspired by

builds to the glorious coda.

4 The Pure in Heart (from "Beatitudes")Patrick
Hawes. Movement 6 from "Beatitudes" that uses
text from Matthew 5:8, "Blessed are the pure
in heart, for they shall see God." Filled with lush

and church services.

n Set Me as a Seal upon Your HeartDavid
Childs. Strong, lyrical piano lines support an arching
unison melody in this David Childs setting of a text
from the "Song of Solomon." Suitable as a concert
feature or closer, this exquisite setting also includes
an obbligato for French horn or trombone. A small
a cappella section on the text, "Waters cannot
quench love" appears as a halo in the middle of the
work. Remarkable!

Ht Sing Me to HeavenDaniel Gawthrop. This
sensitive work for SATB choir is so beautifully
ethereal it will take your breath away. "If you would
comfort me, sing me a lullaby. If you would win
my heart, sing me a love song." Expansive while
staying within the framework of four-part harmony,
it is a conductor's choice for larger choral festivals
and a superb feature for chamber vocal ensembles.

Sing of Thy MerciesRollo Dilworth.
Commissioned for Erskine College in South Carolina,
this setting of Psalm 89 is full of joy. A powerful
piano accompaniment, a soprano descant over the
last verse and constantly shifting tonal centers make
this an exciting and accessible new arrangement
with a familiar text and a true gospel spirit.

4 Te DeumRuth Morris Gray. Riveting and
majestic, this contemporary setting of the traditional
Latin text is sure to impress. Choirs both large and
small will easily achieve a big sound, assisted
by the supportive piano accompaniment. Modal
harmonies convey a sense of urgency throughout,
and an optional descant brings the piece to a
dramatic close. Highly recommended!

l The Gift Of Each DayJohn Rutter. John
Rutter sets an original text to sublime music that
harkens back to his Lord, Make Me An Instrument.
With a focus on light, thanks and creation Rutter
intersperses phrases of Latin text and followed
immediately by their English translation. The vocal
lines are often in unison with minimal SATB writing
and the ranges are very reasonable. A song of
thanksgiving that will be a joy to sing and hear.

Three Contemporary Latin SettingsJerry
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! Highly recommended!

n Two Latin Settings (I. Jubilate Deo II. Ubi
Caritas)Mark Patterson. Here are two contrasting
festival pieces that work equally well individually or
as a set. Jubilate Deo features vocal pyramids in
a strong, fanfare opening, followed by a lighter,
syncopated section before returning to the opening
idea. Ubi Caritas has a calm, almost mesmerizing
texture. Perform these pieces a cappella, or with the
optional festival-style piano accompaniment.

The contrasting middle section provides interest and
movement, and the echoed phrases, independent
vocal lines, and limited ranges allow for it to be easily
mastered for concert or festival. A pronunciation
guide and translation are included.
