All My Heart Shall Sing with Joy—
Greg Gilpin.
An exciting original piece that portrays the
joy that we feel in our hearts when we experience and share
our gifts of music! Shifting rhythmic patterns, joyous melodies
and an energized accompaniment create a festival-type
setting of this accessible piece. A lyrical, expressive middle
section sets up a beautiful contrast which resolves once
again into a dynamic closing section. A wonderful way to both
advocate for music and present a festive concert work for
young choirs! Highly recommended!

Always Sing Your Song—
Victor C. Johnson.
"Keep a melody in your heart your
whole life long, and always, always sing your song." The life-
giving power of music is beautifully expressed in this original
piece for young voices. Scored for two-part treble voices,
but with the addition of cued notes to add a third part, this
piece has the depth of musicality and expression to create a
beautiful statement at your next concert.
Highly recommended!

And We are the Dreamers of Dreams—
Neil Ginsberg.
"We are the music makers, and we
are the dreamers of dreams." These inspiring words, freely
set with highly creative craftsmanship and expression,
virtually dance off the page of this artful and unique musical
interpretation. The closing section of the piece is an especially
effective a cappella section that evokes the feeling that the
music continues on forever.

Flight Song—Kim Andre Arnesen.
"All we are we have found in song" is the first line of this
stunningly beautiful poem by Euan Tait, set to music by
Norwegian composer Kim Andre Arnesen. This romantic notion
is woven throughout the piece, which is accompanied by piano.
Flight Song was written as the composer's gift to Dr. Anton
Armstrong and the St. Olaf Choir. Give your choir the opportunity
to share this meaningful song. Now available in SSAA!

"I have a song that's living in me, more than words and a
tune. It's a song with such beautiful things; and I want to
share it with you." Set with a playful piano accompaniment,

making this a solid choice for young singers.

How Can I Keep from Singing?—
Robert Lowry/arr. Russell Robinson.
The well-loved song by Robert Lowry takes on a more
reflective and emotional style in this elegant, simple setting

choice for developing a cappella singing. A refreshing take on
a beloved work that will program beautifully as an a cappella
concert feature or a poignant opener or closer.

How Can I Keep from Singing?
(A Gospel Setting)—Greg Gilpin.
Greg has taken the traditional Quaker text and positively
supercharged it with his own gospel-styled music in this
marvelous new look at a timeless American poem. This one
has it all - a wide-open solo for your best gospel singer, an
accompaniment that's fine as is, or can be embellished at will
by your pianist, and hand claps from the very first measure
that'll quickly spread through your audience or congregation.
Highly recommended!

I Sing Because I'm Happy—
arr. Kenneth Padden/adapt. Rollo Dilworth.
Adapted from the gospel-style interpretation of the hymn His
Eye Is on the Sparrow, originally performed and recorded by the
Georgia Mass Choir, this setting has been lowered a step and a
bass part has been added. It will be an inspirational choice for
gospel and concert choirs, and audience participation on the
hand claps is encouraged! Now available for treble voices.

I Will Sing—Andy Beck. "Oh, I will sing with the
rising sun, at the dawn of the morning, I will sing. And I will
sing when the day is done. When the stars are shining, I will
sing." A text inspired by nature reveals beautiful music all
around, at all times of the day, in every season; even inside
of yourself! The craftsmanship and artistic fingerprint of
Andy Beck is evident throughout, from the sparkling piano
introduction and hushed opening phrase to the memorable
refrain, the ascending bridge, and the most surprising finish.
Not to be missed!
