Despite all of the current restrictions, it’s very encouraging to hear and read that choirs are continuing to get together and rehearse however they can and plan music for Remembrance and Christmas services and concerts, albeit in a more limited way…. all the pieces in the Accessible Choral Library Series are designed to be appealing and accessible enough to be learned quickly and suit smaller groups of singers so can easily be slotted into a programme at very short notice and with minimum rehearsal required… you can view the whole Series on our website… here is an enduring favourite from Peter Thompson which continues to be a best-seller year in, year out….
For Sale - NEW
One to put on your Christmas list!
The mantra of the Accessible Choral Library Series is that the pieces are accessible, affordable and appealing and, in these current times we find ourselves in, they are perfect for smaller group singing. Our latest release in the series meets all the criteria and is the perfect piece to learn for Christmas! ‘How lies this little child’ is an arrangement by Tim Knight of a simple Flemish Christmas Carol, written for Solo Voice or small Unison choir of voices (any range), together with an optional Flute part, and piano accompaniment. Available in printed or digital format…

For Sale – How Can I Keep From Singing? arr. Sarah Quartel
80 brand-new, unmarked copies of Quartel’s SATB arrangement of How Can I Keep from Singing? at reduced price ($2.50/copy), with free shipping. Listen to the arrangement here: https://www.jwpepper.com/sheet-music/media-player.jsp?&productID=10879525&type=audio
From the publisher’s website: “Sarah Quartel’s setting of How Can I Keep From Singing? is a lively reimagining of the 19th-century hymn. Opening with a solo verse, the piece proceeds with a soaring soprano melody supported by the rhythmic vocal accompaniment of the ATBB voices, with occasional alternation between 4/4 and 7/8 meter. Together, these elements capture both the gentle hope and the profound joy of the text.”
New release from Paraclete Press for Choir and Organ
We are delighted to share the news of this new release….

Sing to the Lord not one but six new songs!
These pieces are widely performed in the USA, perhaps because the texts are rarely set or perhaps because the melodies linger. This recording of ‘As the hand is made for holding’ was made back in 2006, but, as with all Six of the Anthems for SATB and organ we recently released in an anthology booklet, they are all timeless and within the scope of most choirs and small groups. All are tuneful, melodic and suitable for liturgical or concert use – the booklet (TKM836) is currently on offer via our webshop at only £3.25 (approximately $4.30) for all six pieces!
