Written in memory of the composer's mother, Will Todd's Songs of Peace is a six-movement work about love and loss. Two of the movements are scored for upper voices. Although it is not a conventional Requiem, it might be appropriate in a memorial context, butshould by no means be confined to it: in many ways it is a very 'life-affirming' work, characterised by ToddÂ’s recognisable jazz-infused harmonic language, memorable melodies, and powerful and personal texts. Songs of Peace is designed as a work which may be performed complete, as separate movements (two of which are scored for upper voices) or as a selection. It can be accompanied by piano alone (as written, embellished or extemporised - chord symbols are supplied where appropriate) or jazz trio (piano, bass and drums - parts available separately at www.boosey.com/SongsOfPeace).

The bells of ol' Ring-A-Ding Town have stopped ringing! Why? Because everyone who lives there has completely lost their holiday spirit. With all the pressures of the season, they have become so comically grumpy that even the bells refuse to ring. When a severe winter storm pounds the village with ice, wind and snow, the grumpy citizens are reminded how much they need each other. They also rediscover how rewarding it can be to share and care for one another in the true spirit of the season. When peace, love and joy returns to warm their hearts, the bells of Ring-A-Ding Town ring in a new season of Peace on Earth Goodwill for all! This comical 25-minute holiday musical features five original songs and easy-to-learn rhyming dialog with over 30 speaking parts.

This is the second in the trilogy called “Widow Poems,” written after the sudden death of a lover. Each of the three represents a different stage in the arc of the poet's grief. In this one, the bereaved begins to handle the material affairs of the deceased as she, glossing Shakespeare's famous funeral poem, contrasts his state of peace with her own dread.

Fragile and precious, this sacred tone poem is a prayer for peace and a plea for healing of the heart. The soundscape of the anthem rises from a single tone, opening to reveal glimmering splashes of choral color. As the words become more impassioned, the octavo surrenders to a flowing piano episode that matches its intensity. This petition for calm begins to quiet as the anthem winds down, allowing the prayer to end in hushed chords of assurance. Score and Parts (vn, vc) available as a digital download.
