Sing, Choirs! is a library in miniature. It contains many of the Christian church's popular traditional anthems, including at least one example that will be suitable for each of the major services of the year. A number of Anglican chants (Psalms, Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis) are included, set out in a way that should enable those who are unfamiliar with the style to perform them easily. The selection of movements from the Mass can be used to enrich the music of the liturgy in services. Many of the works in Sing, Choirs! are presented in their original form, such as Bruckner's Locus Iste and Mozart's Laudate Dominum . Others are arrangements, adaptations or longer pieces, abridged to bring them into the scope of a useable anthem, including choral arrangements of Handel's Largo , the Ave Marias by Schubert and by Bach and Gounod, and Franck's Panis Angelicus amongst many others. This collection has practicability as a priority. The Organ parts can be played on either the Piano or the Keyboard. Much of the music in Sing, Choirs! will be suitable for special occasions, making this an indispensable volume for choirs singing at weekly church services, weddings, funerals and in the concert hall. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Orgue

For Bb Soprano (or Bb Tenor) Saxophone and Small Orchestra-This dance-driven saxophone concerto in miniature demonstrates how Villa-Lobos could integrate nearly any instrument into a Brazilian sound world while still composing a fully 'classical' piece. Of the three short movements the first 'Animé ' is the longest clocking in at about four minutes. An agitated downward cascade for the strings ushers in the soloist playing an angular strongly rhythmic theme relying on quickly repeated notes. A second melody is much broader and more luxurious and spreads across half the movement before the opening rat-a-tat theme begins to insinuate itself very subtly into the proceedings again. Even then the more lyrical melody remains in control to the movement's end. The second movement 'Lent ' relies on a sexy chromatic melody that lingers in the soprano saxophone's high register. After only the briefest pause the finale 'Très animé ' arrives with an impulsive sometimes jittery theme over a firm beat. The solo part wanders off into trills while the small orchestra stretches out in long voluptuous chords. But soon the dance rhythm returns stronger than ever bouncing toward a conclusion in which the saxophone departs with an upward flourish seeming to vanish from the movement without providing a harmonic resolution.
