4 The Lighthouse—Andy Beck. The title of
this piece, though it never actually appears in
the lyrics, provides an overarching metaphor
for the text. The ebb and flow of the piano

guidance, and living by example in this
inspirational choral. Superb voice leading, along
with sweeping musicality and phrasing, make
the warm harmonic twists and turns accessible
for any choir. Expressive and elevating!

The Music of Stillnessais a beautiful and emotive
setting of Sara Teasdale's poem 'There Will Be
Rest'. Sonorously scored choral phrases conjure
up images of 'stars shining, rooftops covered
with snow, crystal peace...finding the music of
stillness'. Following a serene opening, the piece
rises and falls through both affecting climaxes
and passages of great tranquility, ending with the
same sense of stillness with which it begins.

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!

with bass and percussion, this piece will be a
favorite of your singers!

4t O Clap Your Hands—Victor C. Johnson. "O
clap your hands, all ye people. Lift up your voice,

closer, and the accessible ranges, supportive
accompaniment and artistry of the vocal writing
lend this work to high school, university, and
community choirs.
