Mendelssohn vertont den beruhmten Eichendorff-Text Wem Gott will rechte Gunst erweisen mit einer eigenen Melodie, als schwungvollen vierstimmigen Chorsatz mit vielen punktierten Rhythmen und bewegten Achteln im Dreivierteltakt. So entsteht eine wirkungsvolle romantische Originalkomposition, die sich in Chorkonzerten sehr gut mit einem beliebigen Volksliedsatz uber den gleichen Text kombinieren lasst und so einen interessanten Vergleich ermoglicht. Sehr eindrucksvoll, wie Mendelssohn die Textstelle Den lieben Gott lass ich nur walten ausdeutet: er andert die Taktart (4/4-Takt) und zitiert den Choral Wer nur den lieben Gott lasst walten. Interessante Repertoire-Erganzung fur alle Mannerchore.

If you string all names together, one after the other, like Kreisler did, you will get a telephone polka. With its catchy melody and incredibly funny text, this piece will be the highlight of entertainment in a concert.

Glorious Hill may be performed by a male choir.Text by Pico della Mirandola (1463-1497) from De Hominis Dignitate.Glorious Hill was commissioned by the Hilliard Ensemble and first performed by them at its summer Festival of Voices in Lewes, Sussex, in August 1988. It was the first piece I wrote for the ensemble and I focused on the singers' unique ability to move with ease from early music to tonal music of the present day. There were techniques which I asked for which I hardly needed to notate - the staggered breathing of the two tenors to supply a continuous unbroken held note for example - and the piece moves between passages for solo voices and sections of highly chromatic homophony, almost as if the music were switching between the 12th century of Perotin and the 16th century of Gesualdo. Each of the four voices is given its own solo passage, sometimes accompanied, sometimes quietly supported by the other voices.The title, Glorious Hill comes from the name of the small-town Mississippi setting of Tennessee Williams' Summer and Smoke. I wrote the music for the 1987 production of this play at the Leicester Haymarket Theatre, the first time I had written any incidental music for the stage. Williams makes very specific demands in terms of music and there is one particularly powerful scene, the penultimate one, throughout which music and atmospheric sound effects are continuous. The principle character Alma argues passionately about the vital importance of human choice with the man to whom she has, too late, admitted her love. I watched this section every night throughout the 4 week run of the play watching the different ways in which the actress, Frances Barber, played the scene. There is a powerful emotional and philosophical connection between the imagery of this scene and a passage from the Renaissance philosopher Pico della Mirandola's Oration on the Dignity of Man which forms the text of Glorious Hill. This passage has been described as one of the few passages in Renaissance philosophy to treat human freedom in a modern way. The text, which is sung in Latin, is addressed by God to Adam before the fall from grace.Gavin Bryars.

Premiered at Carnegie Hall for the Shawnee Press 75th Anniversary, this powerful and inspirational work, now set for TTBB voices, sings of “hope” described through the phases of life, such as a newborn's cry, the laughter of children, the ashes of the fire of love that has died, the quiet comfort of a dream. Set to haunting and dynamic music with piano or optional orchestra, the work comes to a moving conclusion of “hope is not lost...hope will arise.” Gorgeous, moving and timely.

Selected for the new Music of the Americas Multicultural Series from North Dakota State University, this zesty piece hails from Mexico. The encouraging message is that chuchumbé; will reach you whether things go good or bad. It is similar to saying the rhythm or dance of life will positively infect you no matter what. And what a great dance it is, with hand percussion bringing additional rhythm to the piece. The verses are so playful it is appropriate for performers to alter the words based on the region in which they are singing. Easy to Medium. For male choirs in high school or college.

John Hoybyes This Human Life! for solo voice and mixed choir deals with thoughts about life and death, worries and speculations that occupy our minds. Described in serious, humorous, grotesque and promising words by R. H. Stoddard, William Blake, Edward Broadbridge and Woody Allen. The music is classical yet contemporary - and as always with Hoybye - coloured by a touch of jazz.
