Sing Pop A
Cappella is a collection
of a cappella
arrangements of fantastic
pop songs old and new, by
renowned teacher, singer
and director Gitika
Partington . Her
arrangements are used by
choirs across the UK, and
she emphasises that being
able to read music is not
necessary. Rewarding and
enjoyable, Book Three
continues her project to
bring people together
through the power of
song. What's great about
Gitika Partington 's Sing
Pop A Cappella series is
how she understands that
to make great music or to
sing a great song, it's
not necessary to be able
to sight-read. It may be
useful, but she has
learned that there are
other ways to communicate
music, namely through ear
training,repetition and
gesture. Her
arrangements, five of
which appear in this
book, have enabled youth
and community choirs to
spring up across the
country, making singing
truly and universally
accessible.
Included in this book are
wonderfully rich a
cappella arrangements of
Ain't No Sunshine
by Bill Withers,
Black Is The Colour Of My
True Love's Hair, Rick
Astley's Never Gonna Give
You Up, Adele's Rolling
In The Deep and a
huge favourite, Sway
(Quien Sera) . Vocal
scores for these
innovative and enjoyable
arrangements are included
in standard notation,
although Partington
recommends learning by
ear as something equally
beneficial. To aid with
this, the accompanying
download card includes
five tracks of audio for
each song. One features a
full performance
demonstration while the
other four each focus on
either soprano, alto,
tenor or bass. The easy
download of these tracks
makes learning efficient
and fun, as you are able
to listen wherever you
are. The great thing
about a cappella singing
is that it can be done
anywhere, with limited
resources, with members
who don't necessarily
have any musical
training. Partington
has created a book
that can be used by a
cappella choirs who love
pop music that sounds
great and will thrill
audiences. Sing Pop A
Cappella is not just a
songbook, though, it also
includes an
extensive.

Commission
ed by the San Francisco
Choral Society and the
Piedmont East Bay
Children’s Choir,
Terra Nostra is a
70-minute oratorio on the
relationship between our
planet and humankind, how
this relationship has
shifted over time, and
how we can re-establish a
harmonious balance. Part
I: Creation of the World
explores various creation
myths from different
cultures, culminating in
a joyous celebration of
the beauty of our planet.
Part II: The Rise of
Humanity examines human
achievements,
particularly since the
dawn of our Industrial
Age, and how these
achievements have
impacted the planet. Part
III: Searching for
Balance questions how to
create more awareness for
our planet’s
plight, re-establish a
deeper connection to it,
and find a balance for
living within our
planet’s
resources. In addition to
the complete oratorio,
stand-alone movements for
mixed chorus, and for
solo voice with piano,
are also available
separately. Terra
Nostra focuses on the
relationship between our
planet and mankind, how
this relationship has
shifted over time, and
how we can re-establish a
harmonious balance. The
oratorio is divided into
three parts:Part I:
Creation of the World
celebrates the birth and
beauty of our planet. The
oratorio begins with
creation myths from
India, North America, and
Egypt that are integrated
into the opening lines of
Genesis from the Old
Testament. The music
surges forth from these
creation stories into
“God’s
World†by Edna St.
Vincent Millay, which
describes the world in
exuberant and vivid
detail. Percy Bysshe
Shelley’s
“On thine own
child†praises
Mother Earth for her role
bringing forth all life,
while Walt Whitman sings
a love song to the planet
in “Smile O
voluptuous cool-breathed
earth!†Part I ends
with “A Blade of
Grass†in which
Whitman muses how our
planet has been spinning
in the heavens for a very
long time.Part II: The
Rise of Humanity examines
the achievements of
mankind, particularly
since the dawn of the
Industrial Age. Lord
Alfred Tennyson’s
“Locksley
Hall†sets an
auspicious tone that
mankind is on the verge
of great discoveries.
This is followed in short
order by Charles
Mackay’s
“Railways
1846,†William
Ernest Henley’s
“A Song of
Speed,†and John
Gillespie Magee,
Jr.’s “High
Flight,†each of
which celebrates a new
milestone in
technological
achievement. In
“Binsey
Poplars,†Gerard
Manley Hopkins takes note
of the effect that these
advances are having on
the planet, with trees
being brought down and
landscapes forever
changed. Percy Bysshe
Shelley’s “A
Dirge†concludes
Part II with a warning
that the planet is
beginning to sound a
grave alarm.Part III:
Searching for Balance
questions how we can
create more awareness for
our planet’s
plight, re-establish a
deeper connection to it,
and find a balance for
living within our
planet’s
resources. Three texts
continue the
earth’s plea that
ended the previous
section: Lord
Byron’s
“Darknessâ€
speaks of a natural
disaster (a volcano) that
has blotted out the sun
from humanity and the
panic that ensues;
contemporary poet Esther
Iverem’s
“Earth
Screaming†gives
voice to the modern
issues of our changing
climate; and William
Wordsworth’s
“The World Is Too
Much With Us†warns
us that we are almost out
of time to change our
course.
Contemporary/agrarian
poet Wendell
Berry’s “The
Want of Peaceâ€
speaks to us at the
climax of the oratorio,
reminding us that we can
find harmony with the
planet if we choose to
live more simply, and to
recall that we ourselves
came from the earth. Two
Walt Whitman texts
(“A Child said,
What is the grass?â€
and “There was a
child went forth every
dayâ€) echo
Berry’s thoughts,
reminding us that we are
of the earth, as is
everything that we see on
our planet. The oratorio
concludes with a reprise
of Whitman’s
“A Blade of
Grass†from Part I,
this time interspersed
with an additional
Whitman text that
sublimely states,
“I bequeath myself
to the dirt to grow from
the grass I
love…â€My hope
in writing this oratorio
is to invite audience
members to consider how
we interact with our
planet, and what we can
each personally do to
keep the planet going for
future generations. We
are the only stewards
Earth has; what can we
each do to leave her in
better shape than we
found her?

Carl Maria
von Weber's fame rests
mainly on 'Der
Freischutz'. The
unprecedented success of
this opera overshadowed
all his other works and
contributed to their
increasing fall into
oblivion. Certain works
such as 'Preciosa',
'Oberon', and
'Euryanthe', the
overtures, solo concertos
and piano sonatas, the
lieder and chamber works
enjoyed great popularity
and were widely known in
Germany and abroad as
late as the second half
of the 19th century.
However, any chance of a
revival of Weber's
influential and
substantial oeuvre was
wasted in the 1920s, when
a complete edition -
begun by Hans Joachim
Moser and with potential
contributors including
Wilhelm Kempff, Hans
Pfitzner, Max von
Schillings, Fritz Stein
and Richard Strauss -
failed after the third
volume.Ever since there
have been numerous
attempts to restart a
complete edition of
Weber's works, but as
this kind of project
would have required the
co-operation of scholars
from both sides of the
inter-German border, the
political situation after
1945 was not conducive to
any such enterprise.
Careful negotiations led
to the first tangible
steps in the 1980s. The
intention, right from the
beginning, was to place
Weber's work in context,
and not to separate his
musical output from his
influential work as a
writer, critic and
organiser in the musical
field, but to publish his
compositions together
with his letters, diaries
and other literary output
as the best way to
document the
cross-fertilisation
between his musical,
literary and practical
activities.Since the
German re-unification
both working-parties
concerned - at the
Staatsbibliothek zu
Berlin, and at the
Musikwissenschaftliches
Seminar,
Detmold/Paderborn - have
co-operated on the
complete edition of the
musical works (c. 45
volumes in 10 series:
sacred music; cantatas,
odes and other occasional
works; stage works;
lieder and vocal works;
orchestral works; chamber
music; music for piano;
piano reductions;
miscellanea, arrangements
and orchestrations; works
of doubtful attribution).
The diaries (6-8 vols.)
are edited in Berlin and
the letters (8-10 vols.)
and other writings (2
vols.) in Detmold. This
complete edition aims to
be a reliable basis of
scholarly debate as well
as for the authentic
performance practice of
Carl Maria von Weber's
music. Conforming to the
standards of recent
historico-critical
editions, the textual
material will be based on
all available authentic
sources, accompanied by a
detailed documentation of
the genesis and a list of
variants for each work.
The musicological
importance of the works
will be evaluated by
placing them in their
historical context, the
presentation of their
genesis, history and
Critical Commentaries.
The letters, writings and
diaries will be treated
as inter-related and
relevant to each other in
the commentaries,
therefore readers should
benefit from a wealth of
concise information and
cross-references.

Julian of Norwich
(1342-1416).
Burrow
s's setting of words of
assurance from the
English mystic Julian of
Norwich (1342-1416) is as
relevant today as ever.
For the advanced mixed
ensemble, the powerful
lyrics coupled with
gorgeous harmonies make
this an optimistic song
of hope appropriate
throughout the
year. All shall be
well, And all shall be
well, And all manner of
thing shall be well.
These words of assurance
from the English mystic
Julian of Norwich
(1342-1416) are as
relevant today as ever.
During her life, Julian
saw her community
devastated by the Great
Plague as well as deep
civil unrest. Yet through
all the turmoil came a
vision of hope that has
given the world this
profound text. One of the
most striking features is
how this short text
incorporates so much
repetition. It's as if
the writer knew she must
be gently persistent in
order for her optimistic
message to truly sink in.
The opening section tries
to capture musically some
of that persistent
optimism. Then there is a
departure from this
optimistic tone (measure
26) The feel becomes more
desperate, building to an
anguished cry (measure
38), acknowledging the
reality that, while all
shall be well, things are
very much NOT well right
now. Eventually the
anguish subsides (measure
52) as the music turns
back hopeward with the
calm assurance, again and
again, that all shall be
well. All shall be
well,And all shall be
well,And all manner of
thing shall be well.These
