Traditional
Spiritual.
New to
the Carl Fischer family,
Abeni Janae (b. 2001)
brings a fresh voice in
her arrangement of this
wonderfully rich African
American spiritual.
Accessible for mixed
choirs of all sizes and
abilities, there is
pathos and passion in
every phrase. Keep in
mind what this spiritual
text represents,
especially if you can
relate to it on a
personal level. Since it
is a traditional
spiritual, it is
important to use
appropriate
pronunciations. That
means it is acceptable
not to pronounce some of
the words the way we
normally would in
American English. For
example: Do not pronounce
the “t†in
“little†too
much, opting to pronounce
it closer to
“liddle.†Do
not pronounce the
“-er†in
“longer†too
much, opting to pronounce
it as
“lon-guh.â€
Whether or not the choir
sings with much or
minimal vibrato is at the
discretion of the
conductor/director.Mostly
, have fun singing this
piece!If you have any
further questions about
the background of this
piece or anything of the

Žibuoklė
MartinaitytÄ— tells
about the background of
Aletheia (2022) for mixed
choir (SSSSAAAATTTTBBBB):
Aletheia is variously
translated from Greek as
unconcealedness,
revealing or
unclosedness. It is
uncovering of the Truth -
the one we are afraid to
face, the truth that can
only be expressed
directly through the
pre-verbal communication.
How do you find words for
the horrors of the war,
for all unimaginable
global atrocities? How do
you even allow yourself
to feel it out? Solely
through art, through
music that offer a safe
space and a formalized
framework for processing
these accumulated complex
emotions and sharing them
with others in a moment.
This piece has no verbal
text and it is based on
various combinations of
vowels and consonants,
thus connecting us on a
deeper level through the
immediate emotional
experience.
The
war in Ukraine in spring
of 2022 had an impact on
all of us and shattered
my deeply rooted
Lithuanian identity. When
the freedom is threatened
and innocent people are
dying, it is hard to make
sense out of the reality.
Yet there is poetry even
in the worst nightmares.
I was imagining that the
only instrument people
have even in situations
of destruction, in the
midst of the war, is
their VOICE. It brought
back memories of my youth
when Singing revolution
was taking place in the
Baltic countries. Human
voice was the only weapon
that people used to
express their
determination for freedom
and independence. Voice
is our first and the very
last instrument we have
in our lifetime. Thinking
in these terms brings
almost a sacred dimension
to the voice as an
expression of the life
itself - from the very
first baby's scream until
the last breath and
whisper.
Duration
c. 15'
The works
of New York -based
Lithuanian composer
Žibuoklė
MartinaitytÄ— (b.
1973) have been lauded as
breathtaking and
profoundly moving. Her
stimulating music
bristles with energy and
tension and revolves
often around the subject
of beauty, which she
calls both a guiding
principle and an
aesthetic measure for
sonic quality.

A
folk-infused ballad
celebrating the miracle
of Hanukkah. Originally
recorded by 90s pop
sensation Lisa Loeb, this
reflective change-of-pace
choral features a
rhythmic yet mellow
accompaniment and
straightforward but
expressive vocal parts.
Whether you perform with
the guitar-inspired piano
part, the optional
SoundTrax CD, or a folk
ensemble of your own,
this is truly a special
touch for holiday
concerts.
Because
of changes in our
school's schedule and the
taking away of the music
requirement in 7th and
8th grade, our choir
numbers have dropped
significantly. Searching
for music that has
educational value and
that the choir will sound
good on (we know that's
important for the parents
and faculty) I came
across Light arranged by
Andy Beck. This quickly
became a favorite of my
choir! The kids are
excited to rehearse it
every day and the sound
they are achieving fits
the folk-like feel of the
piece.
We are
using the 2-Part version.
Being 7th and 8th
graders, of my nine boys,
three are unchanged
voices (singing alto as
written) and my other six
are in varying stages of
voice change. Those six
are bouncing back and
forth between alto and
soprano parts, singing
them down an octave.
Thank you for
providing a great piece
for the holiday
season!

The text
for the first voicing
(SSA) of this piece came
to me in the fall of 2020
while teaching at Crosby
High School in Crosby,
Texas. My students,
though enthusiastic to be
back in Choir, were
struggling to cope with
the civil unrest around
them, in addition to the
pandemic. When
considering how I could
help them navigate this
time, I realized that
they were in need of some
sort of consistency, of
feeling grounded in
themselves. As weÂ
focused on building of
community and
citizenship, this text
and tune came to mind,
each phrase highlighting
an element of personal
and community wellness.I
lead with my
spirit keeping love in
the circle around me.
(Social)Expressing my
spirit
(Occupational)Loving what
I can see and cannot see,
I'll take care of the
vessel I am in
(Physical)I love with me
that's under the skin
(Emotional)Taking care of
my mind
(Intellectual)Envisioning
the me I want to be
(Spiritual)I had the
honor of collaborating
with composer/educator
Saleel Menon to create
the beautiful piano
accompaniment and SATB
setting.Who I Want To Be
opens with a solo
functioning as a mantra
throughout the tune. As
the piece continues,
voices join in unison and
harmony to emphasize the
intent.When the repeats
in mm. 48–51
occur, invite students to
share some of their own
mantras and affirmations,
or feel free to borrow
from the words my
students in the Crosby HS
choir inspired me to
write:Allow yourself
graceI am persistentI am
fragile, not brokenYou
are worthyI am worthyI
know that your success is
not my demise!The only
validation I need is my
ownI believe in myselfI
see youIt’s okay
to not be okayBreatheI
love and I am
lovedPrepare yourself for
not only a powerful
performance, but a
rewarding experience and
conversations with your
students.THIS is the
piece you want stuck in
your students’
heads!~CRM.

In
2014, Chanticleer
commissioned me to make a
new arrangement of the
Hungarian-Romani folk
song Jarba, Mare Jarba
for their 2014 touring
program. Passed down
orally through the Romani
communities, this
beautiful folk song, with
text in a language called
Beas (beh-osh), speaks of
a deep longing to visit
one's homeland, a place
where the singer can
never return. Chanticleer
consists of twelve men
whose vocal ranges span
from low bass to high
soprano, equivalent to
the range of a mixed
choir of women and men. I
composed slow sections of
original material to
represent the singers'
longing to return home;
these are interspersed
with the folk song's
traditional fast
sections. The
incorporated shouts and
calls in the score are
typically found in the
performance of Central
European folk songs. I
hope you enjoy singing
this new version of
Jarba, Mare Jarba that
contains all of the vigor
and excitement of the
Chanticleer version.
