A creative depiction of the frenetic energy of a storm, this piece utilizes body percussion and drums to mimic the sounds one might experience during a storm. That, coupled with the descriptive text, make this piece worthy of study for your treble or women's choir. Truly exciting! 10735244 SA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 4 Suo Ganarr. Mark Burrows. Reimagined and beautifully harmonized, this arrangement of the traditional Welsh lullaby is sure to leave a lasting impression. The lovely choral lines provide opportunities to work on phrasing, breath control, and blend. A few optional lyrics adapt the text for Christmas or year-round use, and an optional flute part provides additional warmth. 10752265 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 10752266 Three-Part Mixed or SAB . . . . . 1.90 10752267 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 l Sure on This Shining NightSamuel Barber/ Jacob Narverud. This lyric gem, taken from a set of four solo songs composed in 1937, is a cornerstone of 20th century choral composition and is now available for TBB and SSA voices. Because of its accessibility, it is an exceptional work to introduce young singers to Barber's distinct style. A magnificent choral work! 10759574 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10736196 TBB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 4 Sweet and LowJohn Leavitt. Alfred Lord Tennyson's comforting text is beautifully set as a lullaby for SSA voices. A wonderful piece for teaching balance and sensitive musical expression, this choral is a terrific choice for women's choirs. Arch-shaped phrases and carefully tuned cadences will highlight the stress and release of the musical line. Gorgeous! 10752300 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 l Sweet I SingRobert I. Hugh. This work evokes an upbeat and energetic presentation of a descriptive text with a piano accompaniment mimicking a flowing stream and a lyrical vocal melody. With an optional percussion part for bodhran, this concert work for mixed choir is a lovely concert or festival selection. "Let it rain or hail or shine, prove the weather how it will, I can sing about it still, sweet I sing in all my pride." 10690240 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 l Take Care of This House/My HouseLeonard Bernstein/arr. Rob Fisher. This pairing of two of Leonard Bernstein's songs Take Care of This House from "1600 Pennsylvania Avenue" and My House from "Peter Pan" will create a reflective concert moment for mixed choirs from high school and up. With piano and cello. 10759733 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 l The Sandburg Star TrilogyJonathan Adams. Using Carl Sandburg's poems Summer Stars; Stars, Songs, Faces and Stars as the text, this arrangement, set for younger voices, brings the poems to life. Mixing traditional harmonies, free tonalities, tone painting, mixed meters, wonderful voice leading, and lovely melodic motifs, this work captures the very essence of the poems and presents them as a trilogy in song. 10748262 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.45 4t There Is a PleasureMatthew Armstrong. A single note descends and blossoms into luxurious harmony in this lovely a cappella choral. The text, taken from a poem by Lord Byron, celebrates the joy of solitude in nature. 10755604 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.90 There is PeaceJim Papoulis. The essence of this work, in a world of conflict and violence, is the need for a deep understanding that peace can come from all of us. After the opening phrase, "Look in the eyes of the children, feel the touch of their hands, there is peace," the verse enters, with a full, yet still gentle sound. The refrain is more celebratory, followed by a quiet bridge and an ending which is calm and introspective, much like the opening. 10519391 SATB/Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.50 10438974 Two-Part . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.15 n There Is Sweet Music HereGreg Gilpin. Your choir will sound magnificent when they sing this superb setting of the famous text by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. "There is sweet music here that softer falls than petals from blown roses on the grass, or night dews on still waters..." With very modest vocal demands, this is perfect for the young choir, but mature choirs will also appreciate its musicality and depth. Highly recommended! 10086544 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10735228 Three-Part Mixed . . . . . . . . . . . 1.95 10443454 SSA. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.80 There Will Come Soft RainsRuth Morris Gray. Sara Teasdale's pensive poem describes the aftermath of war, when "there will come soft rains." Haunting harmonies capture the ear in this perfect marriage of words and music, appropriate for developing mixed choirs as well as more advanced ensembles. 10352517 SAB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.85 lt This Is a Good WorldBradley Ellingboe. Moved by the horrific Orlando nightclub mass shooting in June of 2016, Ellingboe set this poem to music as an outpouring of grief, yet also of hope, that all is not lost and that, indeed, "this is a good world." The a cappella choral texture and harmonies are beautiful, and the vocal lines move seamlessly through multiple modulations. The Kenneth Patchen poem was written and published during some of the darkest days of the Second World War. It reminds us that war will not last and, though some do go mad, God will not forget us. 10736197 SATB. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.25 n This World Is Full of BeautyTom Shelton. This meaningful setting of the poignant Gerald Massey poem is an excellent concert or festival choice for treble choirs. Its hauntingly beautiful melody is first briefly stated by the violin, followed by a soloist, and then the full choir in unison. The intensity builds throughout the middle section before ending in hushed, quiet splendor.
