Composed by Liam Lawton. Sacred. CD. GIA Publications #475. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-CD-475).

This beautiful collection by Irish composer Liam Lawton reflects the haunting beauty of his own Celtic tradition and carries with it the hope of future days for all people. Ancient Ways, Future Days includes songs of hope, songs of tears, and songs of inspiration for the seasons of the liturgical year, all with a definite Irish flavor! Liam's bright, joyous version of the Magnificat features a strong, uplifting refrain that practically sings itself, while the haunting Celtic strains of Psalm 21: My God, My God create a pensive mood to begin Holy Week. Pieta: The Silence and the Sorrow is a heartfelt song with a stirring vocal solo for Good Friday services. Let Every Human Heart is an uplifting piece, perfect as a closing song during Lent. Ideal for the responsorial psalm or communion processional at funerals or memorial services is the emotional The Lord Will Heal the Broken Heart. As the title of this collection suggests, these stirring melodies will remind us of the wealth left to us by past generations, while uplifting lyrics are certain to inspire us to constantly seek the Lord of future days!

SKU: HL.49018058

Composed by Harald Genzmer. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Choral. Choral score. Composed 2003. 42 pages. Duration 31' 30''. Schott Music #ED20660. Published by Schott Music (HL.49018058).

Since an invitation to the Emerald Isle, Harald Genzmer (1909-2007) has been fascinated with the local tradition and culture. Therefore, after the songs 'Irische Harfe', he wrote another cycle for mixed choir at a ripe old age: 'Lieder einer Insel'. In three parts with ten choral settings altogether, the composer tells stories from the mythology of the Emerald Isle in the Irish poems, in the texts of old and modern lyricists, describes emotions, desires, laments: from 'Weissagung Cathbads' to 'Lobgesang der Gerechten', from the bright 'Monch und seinem Lieblingskater' to the sad lament 'Das Lied in einem Madchenherzen', from the tender 'Anrufung des Friedens' to the contemplate 'Abendgebet'. The freely tonal settings range from simple, chordal-homophonic via declamatory to expressive. Of intermediate difficulty, these choral miniatures are suitable not only for professional ensembles but also for ambitious amateur choirs.

Mills on the Merrimack presents a musical portrait of Lowell, MA and its mill town traditions. Opening with a view of the river on a misty morning, the music flows with the river into the city of Lowell where industry and the Irish heritage of its settlers is represented. These two main musical themes are then brought together in a way that depicts the bond between the city and its founding citizens. (3:45) This title available in MakeMusic Cloud.

The Easter Story retells Jesus' suffering, death, resurrection, and exaltation to the right hand of the Father in a simple yet profound story that engages the heart, mind, and imagination. The musical score draws upon folk sources, including The Sacred Harp and The Columbian Harmony, spirituals, carols, and songs from English, Irish, and Hebrew traditions. The choral score is carefully crafted for choirs of all sizes and is enhanced by three solos. Two speakers share Ken Bible's compelling narrative which is beautifully underscored by piano accompaniment or Michael Lawrence's brilliant orchestration.
