The stellar text of this anthem has been placed in an absolutely gorgeous arrangement by Lloyd Larson. The themes are that God speaks in every language, through every creature, and that wherever love is spoken, the voice of God is found. The beautiful accompaniment is subtly nuanced to reflect the text imagery, and the optional cello obbligato is a dramatic touch.

Word Music has provided solid resources for women's ensembles and choruses for years. How many times have you worked with your ladies' ensemble out of that Green book that Word did? This new collection, Worship from the Heart . . . for Women's Voices continues that great tradition and at the same time breaks new ground. Camp Kirkland has compiled a fabulous collection of songs for women's choir. We were careful to include a wide variety of titles that you can use for almost every occasion. From non-seasonal praise and worship, to Christmas and Easter, these arrangements feature contemporary standards, hymn classics and other new favorites.

A folk-infused ballad celebrating the miracle of Hanukkah. Originally recorded by 90s pop sensation Lisa Loeb, this reflective change-of-pace choral features a rhythmic yet mellow accompaniment and straightforward but expressive vocal parts. Whether you perform with the guitar-inspired piano part, the optional SoundTrax CD, or a folk ensemble of your own, this is truly a special touch for holiday concerts.

Because of changes in our school's schedule and the taking away of the music requirement in 7th and 8th grade, our choir numbers have dropped significantly. Searching for music that has educational value and that the choir will sound good on (we know that's important for the parents and faculty) I came across Light arranged by Andy Beck. This quickly became a favorite of my choir! The kids are excited to rehearse it every day and the sound they are achieving fits the folk-like feel of the piece.

We are using the 2-Part version. Being 7th and 8th graders, of my nine boys, three are unchanged voices (singing alto as written) and my other six are in varying stages of voice change. Those six are bouncing back and forth between alto and soprano parts, singing them down an octave.

Thank you for providing a great piece for the holiday season!

The ground breaking vocal jazz ensemble Lambert, Hendricks & Ross laid the groundwork for all the vocal jazz groups that have followed. Often using their voices like instruments and inventing Vocalese, they are examples of what can be accomplished with the voice. This arrangement swings hard and updates the harmonies making it a great bridge between what was and what is.
