So me music is ageless; unrestricted and unaffected by time.

TIMELESS

There are songs which naturally fit that description, and there are songs that don’t. The impressive list of songs in this new Integrity Choral Collection should never be described in any other way...TIMELESS.

Praise & Worship as a musical genre has evolved into diverse and far-ranging styles and textures; there literally is “something for everyone.” But just as certain hymns have stood the test of time and remain in the forefront of today’s Church repertoire, certain “first and second generation” praise & worship songs continue to enjoy similar longevity, popularity, and staying power.

Singing the latest and greatest, the newest and most cutting-edge songs don’t stand in the way of including some of these iconic classics in your praise & worship selections…songs like Give Thanks, Worthy, There Is None like You, Awesome in this Place, You Are Worthy, I Worship You, Almighty God, Above All, and more! In addition to incorporating them into your worship sets, add these gems to the repertoire of your modern worship choir for a fresh, new wave of inspiring and powerful choral arrangements, as you lead your congregation into His presence.

David Wise and David Shipps team up once again to bring you 10 uplifting arrangements for choir and orchestra, featuring 12 of Integrity’s most beloved and well-known songs. Worship Leading Choirs everywhere will find these TIMELESS classics a breath of fresh air and a soul-stirring complement to today’s church worship services!

Heart of Gold (A Greensleeves Fantasy) is a fresh take on a traditional favorite, drawing its name from the lyrics of the original secular song, “Greensleeves was my delight, Greensleeves was my heart of gold.” The piece starts with an introduction that flows into the familiar poignant melody, using beautiful and unexpected harmonies for a contemporary sound. The Second Violins and Viola have an opportunity to shine as well as they take over the theme with a wonderful swelling crescendo leading to the heart of the piece. A Solo Violin and Solo Cello restate the melody against the pizzicato accompaniment motif established in the beginning. The Optional Piano part adds magic and enhances the orchestration throughout.Performance Notes: Start the introduction very quietly. Exaggerate the dynamics throughout. Make the pizzicato nice and full while staying under the melody in the first violins. At measure 13, this countermelody in the first violins should be felt and not obscure the Greensleeves melody played by the second violins and violas, so make sure to balance it accordingly. At measure 20, exaggerate the crescendo and once forte is reached, maintain that intensity all the way to the decrescendo at measure 36. The solo violin line should be played with lots of expression and soar above the pizzicato figures. Pizzicato figures should be light and full, played closer to the fingerboard. At measure 45, the cello solo should be strong and connected singing high above the rest of the sections. Make sure the arco strings in this section do not overpower the cello line.

Choral (ChoirTrax CD)

SKU: HL.274444

From Christus. Composed by Felix Bartholdy Mendelssohn. Arranged by John Leavitt. Sacred Choral. Advent, Christmas, Christmas/Advent Sacred, Concert, Epiphany, General Worship. CD. Duration 240 seconds. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.274444).

UPC: 888680739973. 5.0x5.0x0.15 inches. Matthew 2:2, Numbers 24:17, Psalm 72:8.

From Felix Mendelssohn's oratorio, Christus, this masterwork adaptation tastefully presents a classical work for church and academic choirs. This chorus is from one of Mendelssohn's final works which was never completed. The rolling triplet accompaniment pushes the composition forward with wave-like arches, supporting the choir in all of its sonorous glory. A smooth contrapuntal style contrasts with dramatic accents and powerful crescendos, displaying the confident scripture-based text with appropriate excitement! John Leavitt has provided a new piano accompaniment as well as a new sparkling orchestration that supports the work while staying faithful to the Mendelssohn original. Score and Parts (fl 1-2, ob, cl 1-2, bn, perc, timp, hp, vn 1-2, va, vc, db) available as a digital download.
