Let's gather together, let's celebrate, let's sing! The action-packed main theme of this glorious original work organizes rhythmic accents into 332 subdivisions and seamlessly pivots from key to key, before opening up to full choral harmony. A reverent Gaudeamus Hodie passage assembles lyrical lines section by section in smooth choral counterpoint, leading to a triumphant fanfare that bookends this jubilant song of exaltation. Ideal for school and/or church. This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud.

The two choruses in Jean Sibelius's Op. 65 are different in both their languages, Swedish and Finnish, as well as their conceptions. Man fran slatten och havet Op. 65A was commissioned by the Music Committee of Svenska Folkskolans Vanner, a Swedish-speaking educational organization which staged a singing festival in Vaasa in June 1912. The first performance took place in the final concert of the festival with about 1300 singers in total, although a string accompaniment had to be used to perform the relatively difficult polyphonic piece.The much simpler Kallion kirkon kellosavel Op. 65B was originally composed by Sibelius as the melody for the carillon of a newly built church in the district Kallio in Helsinki. Reports from the consecration in September 1912, however, named the choir conductor Heikki Klemetti as composer. Sibelius therefore felt forced to write arrangements for piano solo and mixed choir a cappella and publish them. Klemetti eventually wrote a new text for the latter. The current edition includes translations of the texts in German and English as well as an informative preface that is based on the complete edition Jean Sibelius Works, just like the score.

Victor C. Johnson's jubilant setting of the traditional Latin text is ideal for developing choirs. The rousing mixed-meter introduction lays the groundwork for a syncopated presentation of the main theme that melts into a reverent middle section. A gradual crescendo and accelerando lead us back to the driving A section. Thrilling!

Taken from a collection of medieval folktales, the Hansel and Gretel libretto was based on an adaptation of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale. The story features two quick-witted and capable children—a brother and sister who face many difficult times, including hunger and abandonment. Looking for food to eat, the children get lost in the forest and wake up only to meet more danger in disguise. In the happy ending, Hansel and Gretel are found in the forest by their parents. All together, they sing thanks and praise, expressing joy and gratitude for their good fortune. The ancient story of Hansel and Gretel is a fairy tale with true relevance in the world today. About the Series: Doreen Rao, 2019 Robert Shaw Award recipient, launches her culturally inclusive choral series, Global Encounters for Young Voices, featuring accessible treble- and mixed-voice works for developing choirs.

A fast-moving arrangement for two treble voices, flute and piano. Verses 1-5 use the same music, then the excitement increases as verses 6¬-9 are each treated differently, ending in a final verse with flying sixteenth notes in the flute and piano and a rhythmically driving vocal coda. The entire piece takes less then two minutes! Whew. Flute part is optional

Inspiration for the Three Motets op. 39 was a visit to the romanesque church of Trinita dei Monti. On 20 Dec 1830 Mendelssohn wrote to his parents: The French nuns sing there, and it is wonderfully lovely. ... Now, one should know one more thing: that one is not allowed to see the singers. Therefore I have come to an unusual decision: I will compose something for their voices, which I rememer exactly.... Score available separately - see item CA.4070300.

This piece is paired with a traditional Irish melody, and the arrangement may be presented in a prayerful, reverent legato style during offertory or a brighter tempo and more spirited energy better suited for a gathering moment. Consider adding traditional Irish instruments to add authenticity to the overall sound.
