Were You There?
Gwyneth Walker.
This remarkable new arrangement for SATB chorus and piano
focuses on the inherent drama of the text. Each verse expresses
a different reaction to its question about the Crucifixion. The piano
accompaniment, which plays a featured role in this music, varies with
the mood of the lyrics from simple chordal support at the beginning, to
harsh rhythms, to rapid "sunburst" patterns, to sorrowful descending
lines which lead the choral expression, articulated in similar manner as
the accompaniment. Exquisite!

Whisper!
Greg Gilpin.
"I need to whisper something to you. Whisper, whisper something
now!" This creative, energetic, easy piece is great for teaching
dynamics and diction. Your young singers will have lots of fun making
whispering sounds and going, "Shhh!" At the end, everyone sings
loudly, "Are you listening?" It's very cute! Highly recommended!

Who Hears a Song If No One Sings?
Hyun Kook.
"Sing for the joy of bringing music to life; who hears a song if no
one sings? The words and melody would languish on a shelf without
someone to let their message ring." Cheerful, sparkling music with
memorable melody, comfortable ranges in all parts, and lyrics that
speak of the reasons we are compelled to sing. This piece will help
develop precision singing in your choir as well as end a concert on a
joyful note!

Wild Mountain Thyme
arr. Patti Drennan.
"And we'll all go together, to pick wild mountain thyme all around the
bloomin' heather." Your audience will be sure to recognize this popular
Irish folk song that's been recorded by The Chieftains, The Clancy
Brothers and The Irish Tenors. Resplendent with Highland harmonies
and musical nuances as is, or add the optional tin whistle (or flute) for
extra Celtic flair!

Sing a Song of Seasons!
Jean Berger/arr. Michael Ryan.

a Robert Louis Stevenson text features canonic choral writing and an
energized piano part. "Sing a song of seasons! Something bright in

Sing to the Lord!
Cristi Cary Miller.
A brilliant sacred festival piece, this fresh setting of Psalm 96 sparkles
with excitement and syncopation. A contrasting middle section
presents the opportunity for lyrical singing and expressive phrases
before a return to the opening motive. A wonderful addition to your
concert repertoire or worship service!

Sisi Ni Moja
Jacob Narverud.
This highly rhythmic and very accessible celebratory composition
pairs a theme of unity and community with a rather sparkling piano
accompaniment that adds its own rhythmic design. The optional
djembe adds an energy all of its own as the singers deliver the
message that "We all laugh, we all cry, we all love... and we all dream.
We are one!" Great fun, a profound and timely message, and great
choral writing make this an intriguing piece not to be missed!

to grace, to seek the outcast, and to help people grow and live in unity.
The original text and melody by best-selling composer Karen Marrolli
are both pleasing and purposeful.
