Swing Low, Sweet
Chariot (Wondemagnegnhu,SATB(div.),
opt tenor duet, a
cappella) |
2.00 |
| |
|
This is an amazing arrangement of the traditional African-American
spiritual.
Unique to the setting is the almost "New Orleans" twist to the style
(bending
of pitch andstylized rhythm). It is an advanced work requiring vocal
stamina
and rhythmic accuracy. |

& opt.
strings) |

| |
| Written by the great great grandfather of the famous opera composer,
this
final movement of the Messa a 3 alternates counterpoint with
homophonic
texture, and demonstratesstriking harmonic changes to illustrate the
text.
Try it with your high school or adultwomen's chorus. Lots of
energy! |

movement, JohnWesley. Dan Forrest has provided three possible
settings—mixed

a time of commitment during worship or for concert
use. |

Time Religion (Garrett, SATB, sop.solo, a
cappella) |

(Daley, SATB, sop.solo, a
cappella) |

and
represented by a number of publishing houses. As is always the
case,
her works are well-crafted, elegant, and true to the text. This is
no
exception. There are numerous settings of this text
available—distinctive
to this arrangement is the variety of textures, the colorful harmonic 3
language,
and simple counterpoint. Try it for your Lessons and
Carols. |

Dios (Green/Crescenz,SATB, piano, conga, shaker, flute

| The compositional duo of James Green and Valerie Showers Crescenz
has been highly successful in creating new choral works. This GLORIA is set

extremely attractive to students and audience alike. The addition of hand-held
percussion instruments really provides energy. |

Friends, Rejoice (Harmon, SATB, flute, Bb clarinet,
horn in F, bassoon) |

church
choir. As is the case here, many of his seasonal works are accompanied by
a
chamber ensemble(here for flute, clarinet, horn, bassoon, and
harp). Try
a
group of his arrangements for your Lessons and Carols
service. |

(Buller, SATB, a
cappella) |
1.70 |

meaning

it on
your
next concert or even for graduation. |
| |
| HMC2314 |

rhythm
that
will be thrilling to your male singers and audience alike. |

Dan
Forrest it is rapturous. |
