Every Life Shall Be a Song—Gwyneth Walker.
A celebration of life, unity, and music, this is a
setting of a poem by the 19th-century English
author John Addington Symonds. The text
speaks of the future with hope, with the healing
and transforming power of music being essential
to this hope. The musical expression alternates
between added-tone chords which represent
building for the future, melodic phrases for the
more tender passages of the poem, and soaring
choral lines. The optional brass and percussion
accompaniment make for a powerful and beautiful
orchestration. Commissioned and premiered by
the Boston Gay Men's Chorus.

also a solid programming choice as a closer or for

t Hidden Deep Within—Michael John Trotta.
"The gift, the wonder of it all, is the presence
hidden deep within, and the joy, yet somehow

setting that delivers a powerful message that will

Lt Indodana—arr. Michael Barrett & Ralf Schmitt.
This highly dramatic traditional African song is a
true musical gem, presented a cappella at a slower
tempo. Arranged by two South African composers,
the ethnic flavor is palpable as the women carry
the melody and the men's voices provide the
harmonic underlay in the SATB version, while the
SSA version uses a small ensemble to present the
melody with the remainder of the choir providing
the harmony. Translation and pronunciation notes
are provided.

and phrase-shaping make this the perfect choice
for introducing part singing.
