Lewis Carroll's puzzlingly hilarious poem â??You Are Old, Father Williamâ? (featured in The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland), set to a jaunty and slightly eccentric waltz tune by Cristi Cary Miller, will prove an attention-catching addition to any light concert. Simple two-part writing at its finest. The voice parts â??trade offâ? telling the story, with brief sections of harmony and countermelody. Pure unabashed fun!

UPC: 038081543741. English. Words by William Brighty Rands.
This fanciful children's poem by William Brighty Rands is simply charming. Well-constructed for 2-part voices, this accomplished setting includes crisp rhythms and complementary counterlines that offer opportunities to work important elements of choral artistry. The whimsical words include blunders like If the pony rode his master, if the buttercup ate the cow . . . the world would be upside down!

William Krape has composed an enthusiastic tune appropriately fitting the joyful Psalm 100. Reminiscent of an English cathedral anthem, Stephen Roddy has arranged the piece for 2-part treble choir. A marvelous concert opener or service anthem.

UPC: 038081561646. English. Words adapted from As With Gladness Men of Old by William C. Dix; music; additional words; by Ruth Morris Gray.
This sweet setting is an adaptation of the As with Gladness Men of Old text about those who followed the star. Concise vocal ranges, sensible phrasing, and a naturally flowing poetic meter make for manageable preparation during the busiest time of year. Ruth's ability to construct a lyrical melody, memorable piano motives, and logical voice parts shines clearly through. Several satisfying suspensions and a momentary tonal shift provide a warm harmonic backdrop. Be sure to observe the expressive dynamic and tempo markings to shape the most musical performance. A lovely selection for both concert and worship.
