Call 1.800.345.6296 / w: jwpepper.com / e: [email protected] concert music Go to cart Sacred Concert All Voicings medium-easy / medium 4t Worthy Is the Lamb (from "Revelation") Patrick Hawes. Movement 4 from "Revelation," Worthy Is the Lamb is a stunning reflection on this beautiful and well-known text. A great selection for concert or church choirs. 10746475 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.40 H Zion's WallsAaron Copland/arr. Koponen. The memorable melody from Copland's "Promise of Living" will be recognized by all in this revivalist song. This arrangement takes the masterwork and makes it attainable by any size and caliber choir. It has very little divisi, great vocal ranges and a supportive piano accompaniment. Impressive in concert or festival settings. Don't miss it! 1478338 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.15 1478346 SSAA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.15 1478353 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 Sacred Concert All Voicings Medium 4 Agnus Dei (Requiem)Jay Althouse. This setting of the traditional Agnus Dei Latin text from the Requiem Mass was specifically written to honor the memory of the numerous victims of the senseless mass shooting tragedies of the summer of 2016. With a very open harmonic texture, almost a cappella with its minimalist piano accompaniment, this setting weaves between consonance and dissonance with simple contrary vocal lines over an insistent single note that tolls in the piano until all voices combine in meditative, somber harmony. This piece will evoke a reflective moment in your concert or worship setting. A pronunciation guide and translation are given for the Latin text. 10751895 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 Ht AlleluiaRalph Manuel. With the text comprising the single word "Alleluia," this quiet, reverent a cappella work continues to be a strong seller in its original SATB voicing. Now available for male voices, this is an excellent choice for both school contest-oriented use and church services! 1629831 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.45 n Alleluia (from "Songs of Faith")Paul Basler. Alleluia is full of energy and contrast. Buoyant, earthy, ethnic, reverent - in short, this wonderful piece by Paul Basler truly runs the gamut of dynamics, vocal timbres, styles and covers a multitude of ways of praising God! The piano and horn are equal counterparts to the choral ensemble making this piece a true work of art. 8061800 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 9503287 Instrumental Parts Horn & Percussion . . . . . . . . . 16.50 H Antiphon (Let All the World in Every Corner Sing)Ralph Vaughan Williams. The climactic finale to Vaughan-Williams' "Five Mystical Songs" is a staple of the sacred choral repertoire and a superb culminating work for both concert and worship settings. 4906467 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10625175 Instrumental Parts . . . . . . . . . 34.00 4t Ave GenerosaOla Gjeilo. This setting of Hildegard von Bingen's Ave Generosa text uses a hauntingly joyful tonality, paying homage to the mysterious story of Mary. A beautiful middle section is surrounded by contrasting modal beginning and ending sections. The juxtaposition of sustained and moving moments holds true to the composer's style, while the harmonic structure and vocal construction offer very fresh textures. Highly recommended! 10746480 SSAA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.75 H Ave MariaJavier Busto. This stunning work is rapidly becoming a standard for concert and festival choirs, and it's easy to understand why. With sensitive dynamic shadings and delicate harmonies throughout, it is simply beautiful! 1980366 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 H The AwakeningJoseph Martin. If you are looking for a dramatic concert/festival work, be sure to look at this one! The glory of music is treated with great depth and musical-textual imagery in this deeply moving selection, which offers a rare opportunity to showcase your choir's musicianship. "Let Music Live!" This will make a lasting impression on your singers and audiences. Stunning! 3027786 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 10299072 SSAA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 1995612 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 10049275 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 3066867 Instrumental Parts . . . . . . . . . 70.00 t Beati OmnesRichard Ewer. This exquisite combination of a text based on Psalm 128:1 and the excellent choral writing of Richard Ewer will amply display both choral musicianship and beautiful singing. Beati Omnes is a perfect concert or contest offering. 10513095 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10366610 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 H Cantique de Jean RacineGabriel Faure/ ed. Zipper. Probably Faure's best known and most often done work next to his "Requiem," the lovely melodic lines are over triplet figures in the accompaniment which can be done on piano or harp or with a small orchestra. 201335 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 H Cantique de Jean RacineGabriel Faure/arr. Rutter. John Rutter has done an exceptional job of editing this standard Gabriel Faure work. No library is complete without this! 1629864 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3.95 n Clap Your Hands TogetherDavid Rasbach. This spirited original, based on Psalm 98, is a wonderful festival piece, a rousing invitation to make a joyful noise unto the Lord. "Clap your hands together, all you people; worship God with one accord. Sing His praise together, all you people; lift your voices to the Lord!" Highly recommended! 10606999 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10607000 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10607001 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 t Consecrate the Place and DayLloyd Pfautsch. "Consecrate the place and day to music and Cecelia...Let no rough winds approach, nor dare invade the hallowed bounds, nor rudely shake the tuneful air..." This standard 1969 edition is on several state lists, and is a frequent choice with festival choirs. 1367739 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.85 n Da Pacem DomineMelchior Franck/arr. Goetze. This canon for four-part treble voices is simple melodic material, which when combined in two and four voices achieves a stunning contrapuntal effect. A first-rate selection which has, quite understandably, become an increasingly popular choice for state contest lists and regional festivals. 1583467 SSAA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.15 Ht Daniel, Daniel, Servant of the Lordarr. Undine Moore. One of the great a cappella spiritual arrangements of all time, Daniel, Daniel, Servant of the Lord is a very popular selection in a variety of situations, and deservedly so! 1254267 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 De ProfundisRussell Robinson. Premiered at Lincoln Center, this exciting mixed-meter festival piece features both Latin and English versions of Psalm 130. Somewhat reminiscent of Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana," it is truly a striking original work in its own right. "Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord." 10303720 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.85 10452970 SSAA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.85 Dies IraeW.A. Mozart/arr. Liebergen. This edition of the well-known choral masterwork from Mozart's "Requiem," now available for mixed and men's voices, has become a standard for today's choirs. Patrick Liebergen has re-scored the keyboard accompaniment and transposed the work down a major second to make it more accessible for accompanists and singers. Generally considered Mozart's last musical sketch, it was featured in the closing scenes of the movie "Amadeus." 1860873 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.85 1860881 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.85 10274863 TTBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.80 4t Dirshu Adonai (Seek the Lord and His Strength)Kenneth and Kirsten Lampl. Set entirely in Hebrew (IPA pronunciation guide available), Dirshu Adonai is a sensitively composed meditation with beautiful layered harmonies that build to rich harmonic clusters. The echoing solo quartet illustrates the fact that these words reach back throughout time and space, reminding us to "Seek the Lord and His Strength." Highly recommended! 10654897 SATB Divisi with Solo Quartet . . 2.65 Dixit DominusAntonio Vivaldi/arr. Christy Elsner & Jacob Narverud. Set for mixed voices, harpsichord or piano, and optional string quartet, this is an excellent way to introduce your singers to the work of Vivaldi. Optional children's choir is included, making this a Baroque masterwork for choirs of all ages. 10592961 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10592962 P/A CD . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26.99 10592963 Instrumental Parts . . . . . . . . . 25.00 Eatnemen Vuelie (Song of the Earth)Frode Fjellheim/arr. Emily Crocker. The opening musical number from the Disney animated feature "Frozen," this song is inspired by indigenous Saami and Norwegian culture, a combination of Saami yoiking and the Danish Christmas hymn Dejlig er jorden, or Fairest Lord Jesus, by B.S. Ingemann. Yoik is a very old vocal tradition among the Saami people of Scandinavia and Russia, characterized by short melodic phrases that repeat again and again, with small variations. With English, German and Norwegian versions of the text, synthesizer, percussion and optional male yoik. 10519311 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 10519310 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10519158 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 3298108 SSAA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 Ht Esto Les DigoKinley Lange. This a cappella setting of Matthew 18 in Spanish has attracted a lot of attention, and has already seen considerable festival activity. The English translation of the text is also shown: "Where two or three are gathered in My name, there will I be also." 3294848 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.70 l Exaudi LaudateBeverly Patton. This high- energy piece in a contemporary style is perfect as an opener in a concert or festival setting. Featuring a Latin text, the opening fanfare-like section leads to a contrapuntal middle section before returning to the opening ideas. The piano accompaniment is both complimentary and challenging. 10736738 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 3136959 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 All Praise to Thee 10513791 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 As the Rain Hides the Stars 10748271 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.45 10519865 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.45 I Will Be a Child of Peace 10366953 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.00 The Music of Stillness 10739016 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3.75 O Come, Emmanuel 10607049 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 10647583 Instrumental Parts Cello . . . . . . 2.95 O Love 10667410 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 Oh Think of Me 10661176 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 Sweetest Music, Softly Stealing 10458781 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 This Is My Father's World 10589958 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.65 One of the freshest new voices on the scene, Elaine Hagenberg is equally at home writing music for schools and for churches.
