SKU: A0.924089

Composed by Dominic McGonigal. Contemporary. 13 pages. C8 Music #5993677. Published by C8 Music (A0.924089).

Night Song was commissioned by Janet Oates for the inaugural concert by Philomel, a vocal ensemble of six sopranos singing repertoire from Hildegaard von Bingen to specially commissioned works. The words were written by poet Euan Tait about a woman carrying water in the darkness, accompanied by birdsong. The six voices are layered to create rich harmonies, building to a cascade of sound as 'the birds sing sudden rainfall'. The piece was workshopped by the BBC Singers. It is for professional or advanced amateur singers, but well worth getting six sopranos together to create an exciting choral texture. It works with solo voices or chorus. 4'30 www.dominicmcgonigal.com

Composed by Vahram Sargsyan. 20th Century,21st Century,A Cappella,Classical,Contemporary. 10 pages. Vahram Sargsyan #927318. Published by Vahram Sargsyan (A0.1341757).

The creation of 'Canadian Streams' was inspired by two important milestones – the 150th anniversary of the Canadian Confederation and the 60th anniversary of the Armenian General Benevolent Union (AGBU) Canada. For this initiative, the composer has chosen a poem written by the father of Canadian poetry, Charles G. D. Roberts. The text portrays the countless spectacular Canadian rivers that were the “witnesses� and “storytellers� of the great, beautiful, and welcoming country’s rich history.
