This well-known tune gets a modern and humorous twist. All four verses of the song are set and include insect and bird noises and references to a traditional cream tea. This should provide a fun addition to a programme (and would work well as an encore) as well as offering a challenge to established choirs.

The copy includes open scores with and without rehearsal piano.

Approx. 4 minutes

I heard something like the voice of a great multitude, and like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of mighty thunders, saying, Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns!

This lively and majestic canon is a fanfare for the great wedding of the Lamb and His bride. In a B-flat Mixolydian Mode for SATB Choir, it has been fashioned to help you internalize God’s Word.

The range of the canon melody for sopranos and altos is from B-flat below Middle C to the 2nd D above Middle C. For tenors and basses, the canon melody is one octave lower. Each of the voices splits into two parts in the final measures, the 1st sopranos ending on the 2nd F above Middle C.

The text of this song is from The World English Bible (WEB), a Public Domain (no copyright) Modern English translation of the Holy Bible based on the American Standard Version of the Holy Bible first published in 1901, the Biblia Hebraica Stutgartensa Old Testament, and the Greek Majority Text New Testament.

Deck The Halls- SATB with parts
This arrangement is in C major with All separate Soprano, Alto, Tenor And Bass parts


The famous chorus ‘fa la la la la’ may date to the medieval period, while the modern English lyrics were written by Scottish musician Thomas Oliphant in 1862. The melody comes from a traditional Welsh carol Nos Galan, a traditional New Year’s Eve ballad. The plural of ‘hall’ was first published in 1892

Written in December of 2020 for Be near me when my light is low, a collaborative Requiem by the composers of Inversion Ensemble (a conductor-composer collaborative based in Austin, Texas), the Offertory movement text is a modern English rendition of the Offertory (“Domine Jesu Christe� and “Hostias et preces tibi, Domine�) from the traditional Latin Requiem Mass. 

The Offertory is introduced by a light, flowing sixteenth note pattern in the righthand of the piano that is rhythmically repetitive and meditative. The voices then appear in unison at first, gradually beginning to divide into harmony as the piece progresses until at the word death they fall back into a stark, unaccompanied unison. The Archangel Michael appears in the section that follows, leading the souls of the faithful to eternal light as the music crescendos and moves through an accelerando, ending on a triumphant C major chord on the final repetition of eternal light. A motive of assurance that this light is promised to the faithful for all eternity is presented in E-flat major, a motive that will reappear in the finale of the piece. The flowing sixteenth notes and harmonic shifts of the first section return at Sacrifices and praises we offer you, O Lord. The movement concludes with a fugue in the victorious key of C major, once again offering comfort to Christ's faithful ones through the assurance of heavenly light for all eternity.

Composed by Mogens Eliasen. Folk,Romantic Period. Octavo. 40 pages. Soverenity Enterprises Inc. #2948289. Published by Soverenity Enterprises Inc. (A0.1007125).

The 40-page score is a choral symphony with a powerful lesson to modern people, based
on an old Danish folk song about the young super-hero Ramund.  The score is dense with
contents, both musically and lyrically, and alone for that reason, the 8-minute performance
takes an advanced choir.

The original folk song dates back to the Viking age and consist of many episodes of
Ramund's life, almost like a personal saga. Some have undoubtedly been added later,
making the total number of stanzas go up around 50, but the main idea of the song is
to report about a young lad, whose ideas of what is right for him to do or not do
are completely unaffected by other people's opinions, including those of royalties and
celebrities. The stories are in many regards comparable to those of Beowolf.

Although the stories generally are dramatic and bloody, Ramund always retains his
cool attitude and shows how unimpressed he is with power demonstrations, even his
own when he is provoked to use his strength. It is a common element throughout the
stories that Ramund detests evil and aggression, and he goes to great lengths to fight
power abusers and aggressive elements. He just wants to live in peace and not have
to be bothered by all those who like to abuse power!

Included in this presentation for piano and 8 voices are 11 stanzas from what is believed
to be original, in English translation, with focus on clarity of meaning, more so than
poetical rules and rhymes. The first ruling concept has been to obtain clarity and a
great fit to the music. The second concept has been to add the inspiration this old folk
song has created in the mind of a modern rebel who would like to see some of
Ramund's attitude to power and power abusers put into action in our modern corrupt
society. Maybe in a less bloody version, but definitely with a similar effect! The added
2 stanzas and the attached coda, as well as the added lyrics to the intermezzos and the
incorporated commentaries to the action should serve that purpose.

In addition, the original tune itself, as well as the lyrics and the intermezzo, have
inspired some musical development throughout the piece, to further accentuate the
meaning and the messages about respecting each other, standing together against
abuse, and not letting power abusers get away with their crimes.

The 8 voices cover ranges as follows:
     First sopranos: C4 through Bb5 (possibly G5);
     Second sopranos: C4 through E5;
     All altos: G3 through D5;
     All tenors: C3 through G#4(possibly F#4);
     First basses: F2 through D4;
     Second basses: D2 through B3

English. Psalm 19:14 (15).

This 2011 winner of the National Lutheran Choir's 25th Anniversary Choral Composition competition uses the text of Psalm 19 in both Hebrew and English. The music blossoms organically from the opening cantorial solo to the final triumphant Amen, using complex counterpoint along the way to propel the text, which is sometimes sung simultaneously in both languages. The music has religious intensity and a modern sensibility.

Choral Choir (SATB divisi) - Level 3 - Digital Download

SKU: A0.1169891

Composed by English Folk Song, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and John Baptiste Calkin. Arranged by Mark R Lewis. Christmas,Folk,Holiday,Religious,Traditional. Octavo. 23 pages. Mark R Lewis #770256. Published by Mark R Lewis (A0.1169891).

On Christmas Day is a medley of I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day and I Saw Three Ships by Mark R Lewis. John Baptiste Calkin wrote the music for I Heard the Bells in 1872 as an adaptation of the earlier poem Christmas Bells by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. I Saw Three Ships is an English carol thought to originate from the 17th century, though the lyrics used is most modern arrangements come from later published versions.

This arrangement is intended to be performed by SATB divisi choir and accompanied by a 3-5 octave handbell choir. All four voice parts pass the melody back and forth and are featured at different times and explore different vocal and accompaniment styles throughout the piece. Most intermediate choirs should be able to perform this piece, although the basses and alto should be able to sing down to a D2 or an F3 respectively (there are optional notes if this is too low). The handbell part is not particularly difficult but is active across the whole ensemble and uses mallets through one of the middle verses. There are also several key changes that will require quick bell changes or sharing of bells. It is also worth noting that I Heard the Bells is in 4/4 and I Saw Three Ships is in 6/8.

This download includes a piano and choir score for when handbells are not an option as well as the handbell sheet music. Handbells are the preferred accompaniment, although it will still sound good with just piano.
