GENERAL CONCERT & CONTEST

GENERAL CONCERT & CONTESTJubilate, Exsultate!Music and additional words by Victor C. JohnsonContemporary choral harmonies and a driving piano accompaniment are the hallmarks of this exuberant setting of the traditional Latin text. A legato English language section in the middle provides contrast before an energetic return to the original material. Highly recommended for concert or contest!n SATB (00-46392) ............................................................ $2.00n SAB (00-46393) ............................................................. $2.00n SSA (00-46394) .............................................................. $2.00PianoTrax 9 (00-45595) ................................................. $44.99

Count the StarsWords and music by Andy BeckThis tender song of remembrance features a poignant original text combined with Latin phrases from the Requiem Mass. Close cluster chords, beautifully sculpted phrases, and expressive dynamics leave the listener with a sense of awe and wonder. Not to be missed!n SATB (00-46366) ...........................................................................................................$1.90n SAB (00-46367) ............................................................................................................$1.90n SSA (00-46368) ............................................................................................................$1.90PianoTrax 9 (00-45595) ...............................................................................................$44.99

Sing and Rejoice!Words and music by Sally K. AlbrechtThe bass section lays out a captivating minor key line, followed by the entrance of syncopated tenors. Altos add their percussive part, and the sopranos offer another layer in the exciting contrapuntal introduction of this dynamic concert and contest feature. In the middle, mixed and changing meters intensify the piece to its “voices resound” height just before the independent parts return. A joyful a cappella prize!n SSATB, a cappella (00-45714) .......................................................................................$1.90

Singing Peace CanonTraditional Melody / arr., with new words and music, by Donald MooreIt’s a snap. Teach the melody (built around the tonic triad) in unison first and then the canonic choral parts will easily fall in place. Conservative vocal ranges fit singers of any age. An optional C-instrument adds a third voice to the graceful round.n 2-Part (00-45656) .........................................................................................................$1.90PianoTrax 9 (00-45595) ...............................................................................................$44.99

Lift Every Voice and SingWords by James Weldon Johnson, music by J. Rosamond Johnson / arr. Greg GilpinThis contemporary spiritual boasts a rich history as a song of liberation and has been dubbed the “Black American National Anthem.” Greg’s tour-de-force arrangement opens with a powerful unison before developing into thick gospel harmonies. Perform with the SoundTrax CD or the SoundPax parts for guitar, bass, and drumset. Both words and music will resonate long after the final glorious chord!n SATB (00-45680) ...........................................................................................................$1.90n SAB (00-45681) ............................................................................................................$1.90n SSA (00-45682) .............................................................................................................$1.90n TTB (00-45683) .............................................................................................................$1.90n 2-Part (00-45684) .........................................................................................................$1.90SoundTrax CD (00-45685) ...........................................................................................$27.99SoundPax (Available Digitally) (00-DIGPX00042) ...................................................... $15.00

Sweet and LowWords by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, music by John LeavittAlfred, Lord Tennyson’s comforting text is beautifully set as a lullaby for SSA voices. The natural rocking motion suggests not only cradling the little one, but also the waters of the western sea, from which father may one day return. Arch-shaped phrases and carefully tuned cadences will highlight the stress and release of the musical line.n SSA (00-45596) ...............................................................$1.90PianoTrax 9 (00-45595) ................................................. $44.99

If You Love MeWords and music by Jay AlthouseThis emotive a cappella work radiates sincerity and musicality. The text is based on a 19th-century Pennsylvania German marriage fraktur, which is a kind of decorative calligraphy that commemorates important life events. Filled with lush contemporary chords and expressive nuances, this exceptional piece encourages artistry.n SATB, a cappella (00-45597) ..........................................$1.90

I Will SingWords and music by Andy BeckA nature-inspired text reveals beautiful music all around “and if you listen closely,” even inside of yourself. Andy’s craftsmanship and artistic fingerprint are evident throughout—from the sparkling piano introduction and hushed opening phrase, to the memorable refrain, ascending bridge, and most surprising finish. Not to be missed!n 3-Part Mixed (00-45706) ................................................$1.90n 2-Part (00-45707) ...........................................................$1.90SoundTrax CD (00-45708)..............................................$27.99

EchoWords and music by Sally K. AlbrechtAttention Orff educators! A pentatonic melody is sung in unison then echoed from part to part. Simple body percussion further engages students and ensures a kinesthetic rhythm experience. The ostinato accompaniment can be played on a piano or easily adapted for barred instruments. Optional shaker and drum add even more layers.n 2-Part (00-45686) ...........................................................$1.90SoundTrax CD (00-45687) .............................................$27.99

What Do the Stars Do?Words by Christina Rossetti, music and additional words by Victor C. JohnsonA delicate piano introduction leads the listener to an elegant setting of Christina Rossetti’s inquisitive poem. Well-conceived voice leading makes the fully realized choral harmony beautifully singable, and each voice part gets a turn with the celestial melody. Text painting, lyrical lines, warm suspensions, emotional range—it’s all here, ready to amaze audiences and adjudicators.n SATB (00-45657) .............................................................$1.90n SAB (00-45658) ..............................................................$1.90n SSA (00-45659) ...............................................................$1.90PianoTrax 9 (00-45595) ................................................. $44.99

Te DeumBy Ruth Morris GrayRiveting and majestic, this contemporary setting of the traditional Latin text is sure to impress. Choirs both large and small will easily achieve a big sound. Modal harmonies convey a sense of urgency throughout, and an optional descant brings the piece to its dramatic close.n SATB (00-45649) .............................................................$1.90n SAB (00-45650) ..............................................................$1.90n TBB (00-45651) ...............................................................$1.90PianoTrax 9 (00-45595) ................................................. $44.99

The LighthouseWords and music by Andy BeckThe title of this piece never appears in the lyrics, but provides an overarching metaphor for the text. Themes of strength, guidance, and living by example are at the heart of this inspiring choral. Superb voice leading makes the warm harmonic twists and turns accessible for any age choir, and the ebb and flow of the piano represents a turbulent sea. Expressive and elevating!n SATB (00-46386) .............................................................$1.90n SAB (00-46387) ..............................................................$1.90n 2-Part (00-46388) ...........................................................$1.90PianoTrax 9 (00-45595) ................................................. $44.99

Stories of My LifeWords and music by David WaggonerAn imaginative text woven from the titles of 20 favorite children’s books, coupled with a lyrical piano accompaniment, celebrates the role of literature in our lives. How about a cross-curricular storybook-themed program this year? “Come with me, and turn the page.”n 2-Part (00-45643) ...........................................................$1.90PianoTrax 9 (00-45595) ................................................. $44.99

Jazz KyrieBy Andy BeckBossa nova (Portuguese for “new trend”) is a musical genre that began in Brazil in the 1950s. The combination of samba rhythms, jazz sonorities, and lyrical melodies created a new, sophisticated style that was soon embraced by musicians worldwide. Here’s a quintessential bossa nova on just three Latin words. Optional flute and/or vibraphone (available free online) add another smooth layer to this hip contemporary choral.n SATB (00-45613) .............................................................$1.90n SAB (00-45614) ...............................................................$1.90n 2-Part (00-45615) ...........................................................$1.90SoundTrax CD (00-45616) ..............................................$27.99

On the Pulse of MorningIn 1993, Maya Angelou recited this poem at the inauguration of President Bill Clinton, making her the first African American and the first female poet to deliver an inaugural recitation. Subsequently, Angelou’s audio recording of “On the Pulse of Morning” won a Grammy Award® for “Best Spoken Word” in 1994. Mark Hayes opens with a resounding “See Me Rise” choral fanfare before presenting the hope-filled latter half of the poem with rhythmic exuberance.n SATB (00-46411) ............................................................................................$1.90n SSAA (00-46412) ...........................................................................................$1.90n TTBB (00-46413) ............................................................................................$1.90SoundTrax CD (00-46414) .............................................................................$29.99SoundPax (00-DIGPX00051) ........................................................................ $50.00

Caged BirdA folk-like setting of Maya Angelou’s empowering poem, which compares a bird’s longing to be liberated with that of all people. Hayes chooses a minor key with plenty of harmonic tension and a walking tempo that suggests the footsteps of those who have come before. The final Picardy third is the ultimate symbol of freedom.n SATB (00-46415) ............................................................................................$1.90n SSAA (00-46416) ...........................................................................................$1.90n TTBB (00-46417) ............................................................................................$1.90SoundTrax CD (00-46418) .............................................................................$29.99SoundPax (00-DIGPX00052) ........................................................................ $50.00

EqualityThis contemporary gospel-style rouser denounces oppression and serves as a choral anthem for equal rights. A confident solo voice helps deliver a determined message in the unwavering words of Maya Angelou. If performing as a set, an alternate ending segues directly into the closing movement of “Like Dust I Rise.” When performing separately, Mark Hayes includes an upward modulation that propels us to the final, most spirited refrain.n SATB (00-46419) ............................................................................................ $2.15n SSAA (00-46420) ........................................................................................... $2.15n TTBB (00-46421) ............................................................................................ $2.15SoundTrax CD (00-46422) ............................................................................$29.99SoundPax (00-DIGPX00053) ........................................................................ $50.00

Still I RiseMaya Angelou’s most popular poem about triumph over adversity comes brilliantly to life in this vivid setting by Mark Hayes.
