Par L'ESTRANGE ALEXANDER (Arr.). Early One Morning, a bittersweet lyric with a deceptively upbeat melody, tells of false promises and deception. It is here given a rather melancholic treatment, ending simply and sadly, as it began. You can hear the men promising to be ever faithful in bars 56–63, underneath the girls’ plaintive reproach. This piece is part of the Faber Choral Singles series, offe…

Chor zu dritt with its three-part settings is aimed at the large number of choirs which cannot do full justice to the mainly four-part choral literature with divoded male voices. In Vol. 5, O little Town of Bethlehem, the singers can look forward to many national and international Advent songs and Christmas carols - and to successful concerts in the Christmas season, even with only one male voice!…

Par SZYMANOWSKI KARL. Unlike the works Karol Szymanowski composed during the first two decades of the 20th century, his Stabat Mater could only have been written in a country with Slavic culture. Drawing on his musical roots and mother tongue, he wrote a transparent score for soloists, mixed choir and orchestra. It is all fascinatingly simple. The melodies consist of minor and major seconds and th…

Adapted from Jay's popular American Folk Songs for Solo Singers, this remarkable new choral arrangement works beautifully. The languid minor-key melody is passed from soloist to choir and part to part, often accompanied by mournful background vocals. Not difficult to perform, but appropriately weighty. / Choeur SAB

What started as words on a storybook page, then travelled to Broadway to light up the stage, is newly arranged for a different use, and now kids can sing what was written by Seuss. So come take a dip in McElligot's Pool, by singing this song with your choir at school. / Choeur SAB

Mozart's 'Rondo alla Turca' is the basis for this innovative twist on 'Jingle Bells!' Your audience will love catching the rapid text as the familiar and sequential melody is volleyed through the choir. Pierpont's rarely-heard third verse is a hoot. 'Oh, what fun it is!' / Choeur SAB

I Dreamed A Dream is one of the most successful musical numbers of all time, having transformed its popularity from the stage into a global chart topper for the numerous artists who have covered and performed it.

This arrangement of the beloved spiritual Steal Away covers a wide dynamic and tonal range, from the ethereal opening and closing to powerful fortes in both verses.
