Douglas Nolan: A Gathering of Grace

Review: Written to commemorate the Passion of Christ, this cantata is a moving tribute to His life and ministry. Composed for maximum flexibility and scored for SA(T)B voices, the optional cued notes make it possible for the cantata to grow with your choir. Smaller choirs will enjoy the rich textures and larger ensembles will be able to engage their full resources. For churches that desire an instrumental component, a very modest consort instrumentation creates a reverent accompaniment. The narration contains scriptures and prayers to convey the graceful theme of Christ's sacrificial love. Ending with the crucifixion, A Gathering of Grace will set the stage for Easter morning.

Joseph M. Martin: Sing a Song of Christmas

Review: Written especially for developing choirs, this festive SA(T)B cantata is overflowing with joyful seasonal songs ideal for smaller ensembles. Original material mingles with traditional carols in a jubilant mix, crafted to create large musical impact with minimal numbers and rehearsal time. The musical variety ranges from galloping gospels, to contemporary ballads and joyful carols to tender manger lullabies. Larger groups can take advantage of the cued notes for richer sonorities and still enjoy the sensitive care taken to minimize awkward passages for quick learning. A flexible narration allows thoughtful directors to customize their programs while optional orchestral support brings appropriate instruments to the programming of this innovative cantata for Christmas. The cantata can even be done progressively throughout Advent and completed during Christmas celebrations.

Brad Nix : Lord I Worship You

This gently contemporary original will be a memorable gesture for church services. The verses consider the mystery and majesty of God and, overwhelmed by the glory of it all, the chorus offers a worshipful alleluia response. Building with intensity, the anthem grows in power and impact with solid approachable chords and a supportive accompaniment. Two separate endings are provided, giving thoughtful directors maximum flexibility in programming this piece for their worship needs.

John Parker : Two Gentle Benedictions

Good benedictions are always needed to bring the worship experience to a sense of completion and to encourage the participants to carry that experience into the world beyond the walls of the sanctuary. Tenderly arranged and thoughtfully crafted, this duo will be quickly and easily learned. Peace Go with You and Tender Shepherd, Gentle Lamb are simple miniatures that will be used again and again. Make Two Gentle Benedictions a standard part of your choral folder.
