Larkin's a cappella, homophonic setting of the well-known Christopher Marlowe text in compound meter is lilting and enchanting, yet accessible. Choirs of varying abilities will enjoy success as they explore the rich harmonies Larkin so aptly employs. Festival and contest approved.

ISBN 9790007296032. Key: A major. German. Text: Geibel, Emanuel.
Reger composed Palmsonntagmorgen (WoO VI/18) at the beginning of 1902 at the request of the Chemnitz organist and choral director Georg Stolz. Stolz may also have suggested the text by Emanuel Geibel. The division of the text into sections, and the imitative and chordal passages in the five-part unaccompanied setting already point towards Reger's later motets.

ISBN 9790080145531. UPC: 884088531638. 7.5x10.75x0.365 inches. Hungarian, English, German. Sandor Veress; Melinda Berlasz.
Volume II of the collected edition of the choral works of Veress contains seven Hungarian folksong cycles or cantatas, a choral poem in Hungarian and a choral cycle in English. In his first creative period (1929-1939), which he spent in Hungary, Sandor Veress's direct involvement in Hungarian folk music research played a decisive part: his folksong experience gained through personal collecting work found expression in his first period of composition for mixed choir. In the course of the 1960s, after his emigration, he returned on two occasions to the a cappella mixed choir genre: in 1962 he wrote a piece for mixed choir to mark the 60th birthday of the great Hungarian poet Gyula Illyes (Oda Europahoz - Ode to Europe, based on the poem by Illyes), and in 1967, at the request of the Australian Radio Company, he composed for the 'Adelaide Singers' chamber choir Songs of the Seasons, a seven-movement madrigal cycle making exceptional demands on the performers, to verses by the Australian poet Christopher Brennan (1870-1932).
