This sturdy tune from Southern Harmony has been given a new setting for SATB and piano or chamber orchestra. The choir parts are moderately easy but sound impressive; there is one place where the tenor section has the high refrain while the other sections sing accompanimental material. Quite a lot of it is unison or two-part singing. The accompaniment adds to the rhythmic drive. Duration 3:00

These dances can be likened to diary entries written during an extended stay in Mexico's west coast state of Nayarit. Following each sultry day of exploring the beaches, Mike Curtis came back to the bungalow and sought out a special cool corridor to put pencil to staff. The titles reveal favorite places. The addition of an improvising percussionist could enhance performance.

Titles include: I. Los Ayala * II. Playa Platanitos * III. Manzanilla * IV. La Palma * V. Barracuda.

The choral cantatas are Reger's most personal and most substantial contribution to one of the principal categories of Protestant church music, and they are only major works in this field by one of the foremost composers of his time. This is true despite the fact that Reger himself does not appear to have considered the cantatas to figure among his principal compositions, as he gave them no opus numbers. In contrast to the three other chorale cantatas of Reger which exist in a definitive form, there is no record of the place or date of the first performance of O wie selig, or indeed of any performance of it during the composer's lifetime. Score and part available separately - see item CA.5040500.

Riversong was originally composed for solo vibraphone and was presented in lead sheet format (for an improvising musician's use) and in a completely written-out version. Spelled here for piano, the original flow and lure of a river's pull is augmented by two additional vignettes - Water Catcher and Terra Firma - that depict both an unexpected outing and the satisfaction of a completed trip.

Water Catcher reminds us of what may lie around the next bend when storms follow the river and powerfully replace calm with chaos. Terra Firma confirms our respect and desire for the journey - natural repose and quiescence in harmony with anticipation of revisiting the river's song.

Amen, Alleluia! is an accessible Latin piece that includes minimal text, making this a wonderful option for young choirs being introduced to Latin texts. The bright, energetic melody is fun to sing with its melismatic characteristics and carefully placed syncopations. A key change lifts the piece into a compelling finish as it recaps the opening themes.
