our latest offerings
A shout out to all treble-voiced choirs. We have two new SSA with piano pieces by Robert Grenier: Psalm 100 and Titania’s Lullaby, with words from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Both are attractive and not too difficult.
Robert has another piece, for SATB with soprano soloist and piano, called Lord of My Heart’s Elation. Again, moderately difficult although the solo part has a couple of phrases with some brief high notes.
We have another new composer’s work to offer. Wisdom, SATB with piano, by Carla Klassen has fairly straightforward homophonic harmonies of the choir but an intriguing piano part that, at times is almost like an obligato. Words are from the Wisdom of Solomon.
Our final offering is an intriguing SATB with piano piece, On My Way to Canada, by Harris Loewen. Words are by a Black abolitionist writer Joshua McCarter Simpson. It is a long piece with six stanzas describing an escaping slave’s hopes and dreams of getting to Canada where ‘everyone is free.’ A good high school or community choir standard, requiring a decent pianist.
