One from the Folder: Repertoire Thoughts for Women’s/Treble Choirs

November 30, 2018 by Shelbie L. Wahl-Fouts Leave a Comment

#35. “Ad Amore” by Lee R. Kesselman. Text by Dante Alighieri. SSAA, unpitched bells.

This piece clocks in under 2 minutes, but it hits the ground running and keeps your attention the whole way. Festive fanfare rhythms, close harmonies, and lively unpitched bells, coupled with Dante’s spirited text, make “Ad Amore” an excellent choice for the opening of your next concert sequence.
