Written as a dear friend lay dying at a young age,
this movement, along with the other two from the set

Andrea Ramsey/ed. Stan McGill

This compelling a cappella setting of a poem by

E Pluribus Cantus
CME Conductor’s Choice
David L. Brunner
Boosey & Hawkes
This David Brunner work evolved from a project that
involved middle, high school and college singers in
a virtual choir environment. The text, with its strong
rhythm and sturdy refrain, artfully captures what it
feels like to be a singer in a chorus, while the choral
texture moves from unison to parts, from a single
voice to many. The entire work is an anthem to bands of empowered singers
everywhere: “From many, comes one song!”

Make Music Sweet
CME Conductor’s Choice
Jenni Brandon
Boosey & Hawkes
Composed in a set of three pieces, the poetry in this
piece comes from James Joyce’s collection Chamber
Music. The music beautifully portrays the imagery of
lovers wandering along a river, the essence of a cool
valley, and the falling rain. Combined they leave the
listener with the sense of a quiet, hushed world full of
love and longing as they are led into a dazzling world heavy with memories.

Solitude Trilogy
photo by Suzanne Jansen
Tarik O’Regan
Novello & Company
Solitude Trilogy takes for its title that of a series
of three radio documentaries made by Canadian
pianist Glenn Gould for the Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation between 1967 and 1977 (The Idea of
North, The Latecomers & The Quiet in the Land).
This work, which sets the poems (two by William
Tarik O’Regan
Butler Yeats and one by Edward Thomas) in three
movements, echoes Gould’s fascination with the ambiguity of withdrawal. In
each text, it is a bird which stands for the character of isolations. The strings,
harp, solo singers and chorus provide a gently contrapuntal commentary on
Gould’s vision throughout the piece.

Ave Verum
Timothy Noon
Novello & Company
The harmonic language of Ave Verum is rich and full
flavoured, without being strongly dissonant. There is
chromatic angst in the middle section, in which the
melodic line of the opening is inverted into the bass
part. The tension is relieved at the return to the home
key before an extended and tonally ambiguous final
cadence.

Fleeting, God
Tarik O’Regan
Novello & Company
Commissioned by the Genesis Foundation, for The Sixteen and Harry
Christophers. Over tranquil, sustained lower voices, intoning the single
sound “ah,” the altos and sopranos add soft, almost whispered interjections.
Then a radiant soprano line beams out above, gradually building over closeknit chords to a joyous climax. The opening calm returns, but the upper
voices still, the lower voices punctuating. Finally the female voices are left
holding on, fading away, till the sopranos edge up to a momentary last D.

Kodály’s Missa Brevis was first performed in 1945, just
after the end of the Second World War. It is a hymn to
hope in the divinity that provides comfort and strength
in the most difficult of circumstances. Divided into
deliberate sections, “Gloria” opens with a plainchant
followed by a chorus fanfare, to a solo section at a
much slower tempo, and ends in a joyful character to the final “amen.”

style and vivid and dramatic contrasts.

arr. Craig Hella Johnson

This lesser known spiritual speaks nobly and poignantly of the lifelong heartache and desperation
experienced by enslaved Africans in America. In this
setting that features a soprano solo, the words of the
third verse are those of a nineteenth century woman
whose entire life was spent in slavery. The meditative
quality of the music creates a pensive atmosphere that is spellbinding.

circling through the choir to thrilling results.

The text is taken from Corinthians 13:13 – Now but

the three fundamental tenets of Christian life with
contrasting austere and lush harmonies and brief,

Mixed Voices – Sacred
Same Train
Mark Adamo
G. Schirmer, Inc.
Composed for Craig Hella Johnson and Conspirare,
the composer writes: Same Train, in many arrangements seems to sing of good news coming. But –
maybe it was the relentlessness, the conclusiveness
of the title phrase – I wondered if what was coming
might actually have been a funeral train: coming for
Mark Adamo
“our sister, our mother,” and...soon enough for us,
too. I thought of so many other spirituals which sing about dark truths in
bright music, and wondered if I couldn’t use the imitative, “ch-ch-train”
ostinato to honor that willfully smiling aspect of the piece, while also freeing
the harmonies to make audible the more disconsolate feelings underneath.

Novello Handel Edition
Novello & Company
This latest addition to the Novello Handel Edition
is the first complete, modern edition of the composer’s longest oratorio, prepared after examination of all known contemporary sources, both
music and word-books. The publication embodies
the complete text known to have been performed
at the Covent Garden premiere in 1743, as well as identifying the later shorter versions and additions performed regularly by Handel, and an Appendix
of all further variants created by him and performed during his lifetime. It is
thus a comprehensive and flexible edition for between four and eight soloists, with an abundance of choral writing and some of Handel’s most sublime
writing for voices.

For choirs seeking a challenge, this anthem offers
scope and power. Thick divided chords offer a sonorous depth to the timbre of the anthem, and the mixed
meter characteristics of the rhythmic writing delivers
a festive energy worthy of the finest ensembles. The
final section springs forth with a rustic abandon concluding with antiphonal pyrotechnics that takes the
anthem to dizzying heights!
