BILL BAILEY, WON’T YOU PLEASE COME<br />
HOME?—Hughie Cannon/arr. Gilpin. What a<br />
great idea to arrange this for a cappella voices! A<br />
classic of Dixieland jazz since it was first published<br />
in 1902, the song has been recorded by all the<br />
great jazz singers. Now it sounds fresh as new<br />
in this fun, showy arrangement. A terrific encore<br />
number or light concert/show choir feature, it<br />
just percolates from beginning to end! Highly<br />
recommended!<br />

BLIND MAN—arr. Tom Fettke. Slavery left scars<br />
on body and soul. Yet in many spirituals a sense<br />
of strength and resilience shines through. In this<br />
example, it shows how the “Blind man” and “I” are<br />
one and the same. As the singer in the old spiritual<br />
cries out for direction, so do we. Our cry becomes<br />
the means for transformation from hopelessness,<br />
to confidence, wholeness, and hope.<br />

e BONSE ABA—arr. Victor C. Johnson. Sizzling<br />
with celebratory rhythmic energy, this African<br />
folksong loosely translates as: “Those who sing<br />
have the right to be called the children of God.” The<br />
only accompanying instruments are hand drum<br />
(treble drum), djembe (bass drum), and shaker,<br />
which add authentic flavor and opportunities for<br />
improvisation. The vocal parts are easily learned<br />
due their repetition and call-and-response style.<br />
Highly recommended!<br />

BONSE ABA (Traditional Zambian Song)—<br />
arr. Andrew Fischer. Here is an exuberant<br />
a cappella number that’s loaded with African<br />
atmosphere! The traditional Zambian words are<br />
sung throughout, with such a buoyant rhythmic<br />
feel that you are transported into the center of a<br />
native celebration. “Bonse Aba” translates as “All<br />
that sing have the right to be called the children of<br />
God.” The song is brief, but may be repeated as<br />
many times as desired. Various voicing options are<br />
possible, and African percussion may be added as<br />
the piece progresses. Your choir will definitely want<br />
to improvise some celebratory whoops and shouts!<br />
Highly recommended!<br />

BUGLER’S HOLIDAY—Leroy Anderson/arr.<br />
Albrecht. One of Leroy Anderson’s biggest pop/<br />
orchestral hits is now available for choirs, and what<br />
fun it is to sing! With lyrics consisting of “dot dot dot,<br />
dum dum dum” and “zoom zoom zoom” syllables,<br />
the work’s famous instrumental lines really come<br />
to life for choirs. Performed with piano, with the<br />
recorded accompaniment track, with live rhythm<br />
section, or a cappella, this will stop the show!<br />

BUTTERFLY—Andy Beck. In this captivating<br />
original for young voices, a staccato piano motive<br />
represents the darting flight of a butterfly while<br />
the playful melody and flowing refrain suggest<br />
the fluttering of its wings. Even the words are<br />
suggestive of the butterfly’s movement: “I, butterfly,<br />
wanna fly, butterfly, in the meadow as you do.<br />
I’ll try, butterfly, but I cannot fly like you...” Highly<br />
recommended!<br />

CANON GLORIA—Michael Haydn/arr. Moore.<br />
Donald Moore is a master when it comes to<br />
adapting classic canons for young voices, and<br />
this is an excellent example of his work. A light,<br />
flowing piano accompaniment supports singable<br />
vocal lines on a simplified version of the traditional<br />
“Gloria” text. The accompaniment is playable<br />
by a student musician, as is the optional part<br />
for flute or other C instrument. This will be a<br />
rewarding experience for your young choir! Highly<br />
recommended!<br />

CELEBRATE WITH MUSIC!—Mary Lynn<br />
Lightfoot. Opening joyfully with men and women<br />
singing in octaves, this exuberant original is a<br />
distinctive, energetic way to open your concert!<br />
With a middle section featuring treble or children’s<br />
voices, an ending fueled by handclaps and meter<br />
changes, and an optional trumpet part, this piece<br />
is sure to captivate your singers and audiences!<br />
Highly recommended!<br />

CELTIC BLESSING, A—David Barton. This<br />
short choral benediction is written with such an<br />
endearing melody that children as well as adults<br />
will sing it with their hearts. Unison throughout,<br />
with just a touch of harmony on the “Amen,” it is a<br />
simple-to-prepare worship moment that makes a<br />
very nice concert closer as well.<br />
10097846 Unison/Two-Part.............1.60<br />
CRAWDAD SONG, THE—arr. Greg Gilpin.<br />
Hand claps, knee slaps, foot stomps, and rhythmic<br />
vocal speech make this a must-do folksong<br />
arrangement for mixed and male choirs. Full of<br />
quick-witted humor and down-home hillbilly fun,<br />
it’s much more than a song - it’s a performance<br />
experience! “You get a line, I’ll get a pole. We’ll go<br />
fishin’ at the crawdad hole!” Highly recommended!<br />

CUIDADO, PISO MOJADO! (Caution, Wet<br />
Floor!)—John Purifoy. Practice your Spanish and<br />
have a little fun with this light-hearted novelty piece<br />
that’s full of fiery Latin rhythms and tongue-incheek<br />
humor! “Cuidado, Piso Mojado! Use tiptoes<br />
like soft pizzicato. One wrong step, and you’re a<br />
tostado, lying flat on your back while they call for<br />
an ambulance pronto!”<br />

DANNY BOY (Londonderry Air)—arr. Kevin<br />
A. Memley. This is a real find for a cappella men’s<br />
voices! Phrases of “vocal bagpipes,” in which the<br />
voices imitate the sound of bagpipes, create an<br />
amazing effect as they set the proper mood for one<br />
of the most beautiful settings of Danny Boy you will<br />
ever hear. Highly recommended!<br />

DANZA, DANZA, FANCIULLA GENTILE<br />
(Dance, O Dance)—arr. Linda Spevacek.<br />
Here’s a delightful romp through the Italian<br />
Baroque dance song by Francesco Durante. In<br />
Italian, with English subtext and pronunciation<br />
guide, this is a fiery, dramatic choral showcase for<br />
mixed or male choirs!<br />

DEDICATION AND AN AMEN—John Rutter.<br />
Whether you select this piece to close a concert<br />
or festival, or use it as a worship benediction, your<br />
singers and your audience or congregation will<br />
thank you. The sincere writing of John Rutter is<br />
captivating and truly gorgeous from the first note to<br />
the final, “Amen.”<br />
10192114 SATB......................1.55<br />
DEEP PEACE—Steve Kupferschmid. “Deep<br />
peace of the running wave to you...” Everyone<br />
knows and loves this traditional Celtic prayer,<br />
but it is not heard often enough. If you’re looking<br />
for a concert closer, signature piece or secular<br />
benediction for your a cappella voices, look no<br />
further. This skillful setting does perfect justice to<br />
the text, with easy voice leading and wonderful<br />
harmonic color. “May the moon and stars pour their<br />
healing light on you.” Highly recommended!<br />
10192428 SATB......................1.50<br />
DO LORD, REMEMBER ME—arr. Russell<br />
Mauldin. A treat for singers and listeners alike,<br />
this well-known spiritual gains new vitality. It swings,<br />
it sings, and is a fun, meaningful addition to both<br />
concert and worship settings. Get your fingers ready<br />
to snap and clap along. You just can’t help it!<br />
10191661 SATB......................2.05<br />
DO, LORD, REMEMBER ME—Andre<br />
J. Thomas. The traditional spiritual Do, Lord,<br />
Remember Me is presented here in a rousing,<br />
joyful concert setting for better mixed choirs.<br />
The inimitable writing style of Andre Thomas<br />
shines through every measure of this exhilarating<br />
arrangement, with dynamic vocal parts supported<br />
by a rhythmically and harmonically fresh piano<br />
accompaniment. Highly recommended!<br />
