Friends, I am wondering if any of you have done the Jeffrey Ames arrangement of ‘Let Everything That Hath Breath’ with a Jr. High choir with limited boys. I do not have the music in front of me and do not have access to a copy so I was wondering if it can be done […]

Greetings all– We’re opening a new high school campus this fall, and I’ve been given a budget to build our new library since we’re dividing our current school’s resources in half.  I’m using this opportunity to look at our current stock by era, genre, language, etc. in order to have the most representative selection of […]

Dear All,   Several years ago, I performed “I Got A Mule” arranged by Hall Johnson for male voices.  I am directing a male chorus and I am in search of a copy of this music, which is out of print.   If anyone has this piece, or knows where I may obtain a copy, […]

I am looking for suggestions of quality Easter SATB choral music to use during a high-church Episcopal Easter Day service. We have performend portions of Handel’s Messiah, and various settings of “Alleluia” (Randall Thompson, J.S. Bach), so I’m looking for new ideas. We will be able to use organ, piano, string quartet, and oboe, clarinet, […]

Does anyone know where I can locate this arrangement?  I’m rather desperately searching.   Many thanks,   Dr. Eric Delson Musical Director Brussels Choral Society  

Hi guys,   I don’t know if there are others out there – but I’ve been just teaching pieces and warm-ups.    I’d like to create a sequential curriculum that would prepare students from 5th grade through 12th.  In theory – I’d like to prepare kids to sing in 6-8 parts in high school.  I […]
