This rhythmic rendition of the traditional carol is a blast! The funky feel craves choreography (on the Step One! DVD and at alfred.com/video), a likely addition, as accessible writing will make note learning a breeze. A new half-time bridge leads into a key change just before the final groovin' verse.

UPC: 785147878100. Latin. Text by Thomas Aquinas.
A mellifluous tone pervades this setting of the classic Latin text for the Eucharist. Careful repetition of phrases makes for quicker learning without weariness for the hearer. The serene piano introduction reappears as a short interlude later on. Don’t be surprised if you hear parishioners and choir members humming snippets of this one after the service!

Richard Hageman (1881-1966) was a born into a family of musicians. As a pianist, he performed concerts from the age of six, and his mastery of this instrument is evident in the intricate accompaniment of this piece. After coming to America, (originally as accompanist to touring French singer Yvette Guilbert), he worked for a period of years as a conductor and pianist for the Metropolitan Opera in New York. It was during this period of time that he composed Do Not Go, My Love for solo voice, originally dedicating it to the operatic tenor, George Hamlin. Hageman's later career included work in Hollywood, first as a conductor, but later as a film-score composer and actor. Do Not Go, My Love is well-known among classical soloists, and many recordings exist. The SSA version of this American standard brings a vocal classic to younger singers who might not yet possess the dexterity to perform the original solo. Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was an Indian polymath; someone who possesses deep knowledge and understanding of many disparate subjects. Tagore's expertise included the visual arts, music, and poetry. Tagore won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913, contributing to his receiving knighthood from King George V in 1915, but Tagore renounced his knighthood after the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre. There are five Tagore museums in Bangladesh and three in India; at least three universities bear his name. Do Not Go, My Love is taken from The Gardener, a collection of poems translated from Bengali by Tagore and published in 1915. Number 34 in the collection, and taken by itself, the poem might be interpreted as someone watching over the deathbed of a lover or child; however, the larger narrative woven through The Gardener suggests a romantic relationship being clung to by the speaker.  .Richard Hageman (1881–1966) was a born into a family of musicians.

This Sondheim standard is all about being positive, not taking no for an answer. And this awesome Mark Hayes arrangement is truly outstanding! Alternating between rapid and rhythmic unison patter and full choral harmony, the driving rhythms of the accompaniment generate a sense of urgency throughout. Exciting!
