The last autumn leaves freely descend during the short piano introduction, symbolic of the change from fall to winter. Two-part groups will luxuriate in the words of Rachel Field as presented in this sumptuous setting. As simple as a partner song, with two independent melodies that assemble into a delicate choral duet; as sophisticated as an art song, with haunting motives and passing dissonances. Crystalline chords, embedded into the mostly arpeggiated accompaniment, dazzle the ear and offer subtle support to treble voices of any age. Designed with the clarity and elegance that will make any ensemble sound impressive.

Text by William C. Dix.

A hymn-anthem on nyland, a lovely tune that in many circles is unfortunately little known, with a famous text based on Matthew 11:28. Each stanza has a different treatment with stanza 3 being SATB unaccompanied. The accompaniment, rather uncharacteristic for a hymn of this genre, is comprised of arpeggiated eighth notes. .

This piece is extracted from the complete setting No Greater Love Mass, G-8789. An arpeggiated accompaniment in contrary motion underlies the cantor’s invocations, switching to a stately support of the congregational or choral Kyrie responses. With easy adaptation, the Kyrie portions could be extracted for a stand-alone Kyrie as well.

UPC: 785147820000. English. Text Source: 'Conditor alme siderum,' Latin hymn, 9th c., tr. The Hymnal 1982, alt.

A delightful arrangement of a classic Advent text from the 9th-century, this gently flowing piece begins with a statement of the melody coupled by a simple arpeggiated accompaniment. The undulating rhythm is broken mid-piece by a more chordal harmonic movement that reflects the reverence and magnitude of the text, “At your great name, O Jesus, now all knees must bend, all hearts must bow.” It ends as it began with a strong restatement of the opening accompaniment.

The subtle tone painting in the piano part, changing voice textures, and a beautiful melody combine to create this glorious anthem of healing, hope, and peace. The accompaniment is a central feature of this work—its rising and falling arpeggiated accompaniment deftly depicts the gentle rolling of a river that soothes and refreshes the soul.
