New Choral for Fall 2022
Cantimus de Amore (We Sing of Love)

The Baroque-era flair of this minor key work is truly captivating. Three phrases in Latin alternate with a largely English text about living life fully.
Count Your Blessings
SATB | SAB | 2-Part
This expressive song of gratitude celebrates plentiful good things. Starts and ends sweetly, builds to a sweeping descant-topped refrain.
Follow the Drinking Gourd
SATB | 3-Part Mixed | 2-Part
A percolating, rhythmic setting of the traditional spiritual that invites exciting minor key singing. Independent lines and stacked ostinatos captivate.
Kolyadá
SATB
This delightful Eastern European carol explains the holiday tradition of sharing good tidings with neighbors and friends. A cappella with percussion.
Madrigal Remix
3-Part Mixed | 2-Part
A fresh take on standard rep! Two brief mainstream madrigals are re-imagined with piano, bass, and drums accompaniment.
A Pure Heart
SAB | SSA | TBB
Here’s a romantic Welsh folk song arranged for three gorgeous voice parts. Lyrical lines, legato phrasing, and sumptuous sonorities are satisfying to sing.
The Rainbow
2-Part
Rossetti’s charming poem is set for treble voices of any age. The polyphonic choral writing is simple yet sophisticated, colorful yet clear.
Siyahamba
3-Part Mixed | 2-Part
A stellar setting of the South African folk song for developing singers with logical part-writing, stylistic rhythms, and an energized accompaniment!
When Words Are Not Enough
SATB | 3-Part Mixed | 2-Part
The ultimate music-themed opener/closer for concert and festival programs! A tuneful hook and full choral writing pay tribute to the art of song.
Winter Bells
SATB | 3-Part Mixed | 2-Part
Compelling Ukrainian Bell Carol with festive wintertime words. Textured choral parts bring a flurry of “jing, jingle’s,” and “fa la la’s.” Familiar and fun!
