(The Composition Showcase is a unique resource for conductors. Choral composers are allowed to share only a few of their best works. Each week we offer you the best of the best on a silver platter. The Silver Platter Award winners are works that your choirs will love to sing and your audiences will love to hear)
Silver Platter Award Winner:
Level: High School or Higher
Uses: General Concert Use, Funeral
Program Themes: Death, New Life, Peace
This Piece Would Program Well With: Prayer for Peace by Karen L. Thomas available in the Composition Showcase
Shane Dittmar has penned a lovely short peace to show off your sopranos high Bb and to share strong emotion in difficult times. I would take the piece Adagio or even Lento rather than the Andante given by the composer.
Rest in Peace is available from the composer: https://choralnet.org/view/user/108432
