This is that special piece for your special choir: a tonal, a cappella, double chorus tour de force of minimalist techniques that sounds like...the desert! This piece repays careful study: the conductor who helps the singers identify repeated patterns, and the relation of each part to its counterpart in the other chorus, will accelerate the learning process. Your reward is four sections of differing programmatic effects, to be performed as one long movement. 1. Pyramid Lake (SSAA/SSAA a cappella; duration: 1’30; range: g-e; difficulty: medium-difficult). 2. Death Valley (SSAA/SSAA a cappella; duration: 1’50; range: b flat - f; difficulty: medium-difficult). 3.

A folk-like setting of Maya Angelou's empowering poem, which compares a bird's longing to be liberated with that of all people. Hayes chooses a minor key with plenty of harmonic tension and a walking tempo that suggests the footsteps of those who have come before. The final Picardy third is the ultimate symbol of freedom. This is the second movement from the song cycle Like Dust I Rise.

Solemn, spherical, downright uplifting - these attributes apply in a special way to Rolf Rudin's Würzburg hallelujah. The polyphoniccoda composition for the hallelujah song GL 175.4 by Heinrich Rohr was created in 2006 as a commissioned composition for the girls' choir at Würzburg Cathedral. The prefixed unanimous intonation of Rohrsche Halleluja is followed by the award-winning composer's four- to five-part female choir (SSSAA). The praise of God finds its solemn conclusion with enchanting “otherworldly†sounds. A church music miniature with a gooseflesh character, which is suitable for liturgical use as well as being detached from the liturgical context.

Kreisler's otherwise humoristically critical style leads to the simple question: Why? He asks about the cause of sloth, docility and social adaptation. The demand for breaking out of this lethargy, which is rather halfhearted, concludes the work.

Composing soulful and expressive choral music has been the trademark of Alwin Michael Schronen for many years. A hauntingly beautiful testimony to that is his arrangement of Sally Gardens for upper voices (SSAA) and piano. This traditional Irish folk song is based on one of the first love poems by William Butler Yeats. Its melody is characterized by simplicity and catchiness which are maintained by Schronen in a clean and natural manner in an easy-to-play choral setting for four female or childrens voices singing in unison over long passages and are only seldom divided into four voices. The warm sounds of the easily playable piano accompaniment emphasize the melancholy and touching air of this wonderful Irish folk tune. A catchy tune - guaranteed!

8 page octavo Text: Jane Griner Published by: Dunstan House The text for this lullaby has been quite cleverly crafted by poet Jane Griner so that by the alteration of words in two spots shown in the score, the piece may be sung either as a general lullaby for any child, or as a more specific lullaby for the infant Jesus. Softly, Little Child was commissioned by a consortium of thirteen women's choruses organized under the auspices of the American Choral Directors Association by Dr. Lisa Fredenburgh, National Repertoire and Standards Chair for Women's Choirs.

1. Oh, the Beautiful Treasure; 2. We Will Walk with Mother and Mourn; 3. Hop Up and Jump Up. Explore the American heritage of Shaker hymnody with these three settings of lesser-known, very appealing Shaker spirituals. Each brief setting grows from its underlying melody to make an exceptionally unified arrangement. With a different technique as the focus for each arrangement, these minute-long pieces make fine vocalises for your choir. Oh the beautiful treasure, with its square rhythms, horn calls, and harmonic texture opening out and closing, is excellent for teaching chord tuning. We will walk with Mother and mourn, with its smooth, stepwise, rising and falling melody, is a fine exercise for legato singing. Hop up and jump up, with its crisp rhythms and phrase fragments tossed from part to part, calls for rhythmic clarity and clean entrances and cutoffs.

This setting of Ave Regina c''lorum (Hail, O Queen of Heaven), one of the four Marian antiphons with origins in the 4th century, is ajoyous work for upper voices, suitable for children's or women's choirs. It is full of energy and, although it is largely homophonic, the rhythmic interplay between the parts creates interesting textures which combine with Arnesens recognisable, beautiful harmonic language. The jubilant outer sections contrast with a slower, more mysterious middle section where the text speaks of the Virgin Marys beauty. A joy to both sing and listen to, this new piece will make an attractive addition to a concert or service.
