4 Nature SingsDale Wood. "Morning
breaks, the earth awakens, field and forest, in
anticipation, hold their breath as nature comes
alive to sing." A celebration of the symphony
of sound that surrounds us in the natural
world comes together with a modern melody,
interesting harmonies and an inspired piano
accompaniment. Finger cymbals and tambourine
provide added color and variety in this unique
modern concert work. Highly recommended!

New BeginningsJim Papoulis. New Beginnings
was inspired by an exciting yet bittersweet time
for students - the closing of one chapter in life
and beginning another. Although many of us
look forward to a next chapter in life with great
anticipation, we find ourselves emotional for a
chapter that will never exist the same way again.
This piece is highly suitable for moving up or
graduation ceremonies.

4t Now Is the Month of Maying!Thomas Morley/
arr. Kirby Shaw. This is a surprising departure
from what you'd expect when you read the title.
An intriguing mix of old and new, Kirby Shaw's
treatment of the Thomas Morley madrigal retains
the original vocal parts in dancing counterpoint on
the verses while adding a fresh rhythmic refrain
of fa-la-las at the beginning and end. With a
shaker accompaniment, this spritely a cappella
arrangement builds ensemble skills such as
intonation, flexibility, balance, and blend. A fun new
take on an old favorite!

n Now Sleeps the Crimson PetalGreg Gilpin.
This sensitive setting of Alfred Lord Tennyson's
time-honored poem is a musical text painting, set
to lush harmonic phrases and lyric melodies. The
simple yet supportive accompaniment allows the
vocals to be showcased throughout. "Now sleeps
the crimson petal, now the white; Nor waves the
cypress in the palace walk; Nor winks the gold fin
in the porphry font: The firefly wakens: waken thou
with me..." Highly recommended!

O Great SpiritShawn Kirchner. Simple,
repeated note patterns form the melodic and
accompanimental textures of this piece and
combine with the text to build a feeling and sense
of humility. Each verse builds toward a cascade of
running eighth notes that subsides in quietness. A
mood of reverence permeates the piece as Chief
Yellow Lark's words, uttered with eternity in mind,
reveal all of life to be sacred. Flute and piano
accompaniment parts are included in the octavo.

4 O Lux BeatissimaMark Burrows. Translated
as "O blessed light, fill the hearts of all people. In
work, rest; in stress, relief; in sorrow, comfort," this
Latin text is featured in a gorgeous choral setting.
Wonderful musical opportunities for teaching
breathing, phrase shaping, pure vowel sound,
and dynamic control abound in this elegantly
flowing setting. A pronunciation guide is included
to aid in the instruction of the Latin text. This highly
recommended piece will work equally well for
young treble voices or women's choirs.

n O Rushing WindMark Patterson. This flowing
original is so singable and so meaningful, it will be
one of your choir's favorites. "Come and follow me
as we sail the open seas and find the place where
all our dreams begin..." Full of hope and optimism,
with a beautiful melody and an evocative piano
accompaniment, it portrays the wind and the sea as
the life force that will "bring us safely home again."

that will bring out the best in your choir. Suitable for

graduation. "Live, you will live; grow, you will grow;
sing, you will sing, you will flow..."

l Oh Think of MeElaine Hagenberg. The simple
beauty of a sunrise, a summer breeze, or evening
stars can evoke memories of a loved one. Oh,
Think of Me was inspired by a poem by Frances
Anne Kemble to honor the life of a young man who
died too young. With a beautiful, emotive piano art,
soaring melodies and reflective moments, your
singers and audience will find heartache and then
resolution and peace in both the music and the text.
Absolutely breathtaking!

n The Old MillKenneth 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. The minor mode and 6/8 pulse effectively
establish the mood for this haunting piece which
will provide a unique contrast for your concert or
festival programming needs. This is truly a special
piece of music you won't want to miss.

One CandleAndy Beck & Brian Fisher. It's a
ready-made candle-lighting ceremony as a soloist
sings with a solitary flame, a second voice adds its
light, and gradually the whole choir illuminates the
stage with their voices and hopes of peace. One
Latin phrase, "Dona nobis pacem," is sung by the
echoing chorus, then "in the glow of candlelight I
see... peace for you and me." Choirs of all ages will
sound their very best on this at Christmas or any
time of year! Highly recommended!

piece. Highly recommended!

l Quiet SeaJill Friedersdorf & Melissa Keylock.
A song of hope and promise, the simple melodic
idea begins in an opening baritone solo before
being picked up by the sopranos and altos.
This melodic idea continues to be shared freely
throughout the piece. The piano accompaniment
adds support and forward motion as the choir asks
"Where is the quiet sea? Where is the sun so fair?
Lost in the storm, lost in the clouds... yet there."

FINDING
OPHELIA'S
VOICE, OPENING
OPHELIA'S HEART
Nurturing the
Adolescent Female Voice
Lynne Gackle. Lynne Gackle,
Associate Professor of Ensembles
and Assistant Choral Director at
Baylor University, has long been
an advocate for the power of
singing as a catalyst for positive
change and self-actualization in
adolescent girls. Her landmark
text is a synthesis of these ideas,
reflecting her unmatched expertise
on the working of the female voice
and a lifetime of experience and
research. Serving to enlighten and
encourage teachers and choral
directors of these students, Finding
Ophelia's Voice, Opening Ophelia's
Heart addresses the symptoms of
vocal change in the female voice,
along with physiological factors that
affect it. Appropriate choral literature,
recordings, and other educational
materials are also presented. The
included DVD, which may be used
as a teaching tool in the classroom,
provides demonstrations of the
phases of vocal maturation, voice
classification, vocal techniques, and
other pedagogical strategies, all with
the help of an all-girl choir (ages 12-
16) under the direction of Dr. Gackle.
