Joy shines in every measure of this easy-to-learn anthem for Palm Sunday. The appearance of a traditional Irish folk tune in the body of the song brings contrast and provides a moment of reflection before the great celebration returns. Ideal for a “ring and sing” procession of palms, this could be easily memorized for pageants and other festival presentations.

Find hope, shine hope, sing hope. This simple melody stacks beautifully into a 3-part canon by the end of the song, building the skills of developing part-singers. A quote from Emily Dickinson's treasured poem, Hope Is the Thing with Feathers, provides contrast in the middle of this tender and tuneful song. An excellent choice for any time of year.

There's nothing quite like the excitement of opening night, captured brilliantly here in the showstopper from Cole Porter's Kiss Me, Kate. Anticipation gradually builds as the bubbly tune passes from voice to voice in a crescendo, eventually erupting into the title line of the song. A terrific selection for staging or choreography, smartly arranged for developing choirs!

Thoughtfully crafted to make your 2-part singers sound their best, this Andy Beck arrangement reads like a solid choral lesson plan, with built-in teaching tools. The lyrical tune is sung first in unison, then in canon, a gentle call and response bridge introduces a new key, eventually some parallel harmonies arrive, and an optional middle note at the end offers one three-part chord. Adapted lyrics honor the bond of friend to friend.

The wind is cold, the branches bare, but hearts are warm and bright. Despite the chill of December, it'' all about hope, peace, and kindling kindness. As you'd expect from a round, a simple melody easily stacks into a complete choral texture. Even better, the conservative-range tune ensures a good fit for all voices. Groups of any age will master the canonic form and enjoy delivering the heartfelt, non-holiday message.

This sincere goodbye song is especially well conceived for developing 2-part singers. The tuneful, memorable melody is so easy to learn, and harmonies are smartly achieved with independent counterlines or a comfortable distance between notes for those just learning to sing in parts. A delicate piano part provides consistent support throughout. In the sunshine, in the rain, you were always true. A perfect choice at the end of a year.

A festive setting of the English round that will come together quickly at that busy time of year! A rousing antiphonal treatment (a fanfare) leads into the traditional tune, followed by a newly composed bridge. Later, the unison melody becomes a 2-part, and eventually a 3-part round. A wonderful opener for holiday performances!
