Choral (SAB Choir)

SKU: HL.1295038

Composed by Buddy DeSylva, Lew Brown, and Ray Henderson. Arranged by Kirby Shaw. Jazz Chorals. Octavo. Duration 120 seconds. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.1295038).

UPC: 196288170006. 6.75x10.5x0.019 inches.

Turn back the clock roughly a century with Kirby Shaw's bright and appealing arrangement of “The Best Things in Life Are Free,” a jaunty jazz-age anthem with a timeless message of positivity. This classic by the legendary songwriting trio of DeSylva, Brown, and Henderson encourages us with the reminder that the greatest treasures - life, love, and the beauty of the world around us - can be ours at no cost.

Choral SSA Choir and Piano

SKU: CF.CM9706

Composed by Meredith Tompkins. 12 pages. Duration 2:45. Carl Fischer Music #CM9706. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.CM9706).

ISBN 9781491160022. UPC: 680160918621. Key: D minor. English. Sara Teasdale, adapted by Meredith Tompkins.

Sara Teasdale was a celebrated American poet who lived at the turn of the twentieth century, known for her classical style and pure, openhearted writing. At the young age of twenty-three, she became a published author and went on to release a total of eight award-winning collections of poetry in her lifetime. Love-Free is a reflective poem that appears in Part I of Rivers to the Sea, published in 1915. In the text, the narrator experiences a range of emotions centering around lost love and the desire to either separate from or rekindle it. Reminiscent of an antique music box, the text is paired with a waltz-like accompaniment in a lilting 3/4 pattern. Melodic exploration of the natural minor scale is achieved through mostly step-wise motion and some carefully placed, text-painted leaps ranging from a minor third to a sixth. With some unison, SA, and SSA sections, this piece can show off the wide array of colors and textures available to treble choirs.
