From 1717 to 1718, Handel composed eleven multi-movement, psalm-based anthems, commonly known as the Chandos Anthems (he was resident composer for the First Duke of Chandos during this period). is setting of verses from Psalm 96 is drawn from Anthem 4b, “O Sing unto the Lord a New Song†(HWV 249b). Chepponis’ thoughtful editing and arranging of this gem—based on original sources, as well as practical considerations— make it accessible to many choirs that may not have the luxury of a large SATB choir. Listen to the recording and follow along with the score in this preview video:.

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!Matt AlbrechtChoir DirectorCopley-Fairlawn Middle School
