?Ubi Caritas II: Through Infinite Ages is a closely related sequel to my Ubi Caritas published in 2007. Re-imagining some of the same material such as the main theme from the first piece Ubi Caritas II is in one sense a more sunny version of its prequel. While Ubi Caritas II functions as an independent work it is also intended to be used in combination with the other piece for example as prelude/postlude ?bookends? perhaps yielding a sense of unity and conclusion to the concert or recording. In those cases I would usually recommend ending with Ubi Caritas II.? Ola GjeiloWatch here - CWU Chamber Choir: Gjeilo -Ubi Caritas II: Through Infinite Ages:

SATB Chorus divisi and Opt. String Quartet or Ensemble-Based on a chorale motif from the last movement of his Sunrise Mass the composer has developed the beautiful melody into a free-standing anthem.

If you need a stunning opening for your next concert this may be it! Of simple A-B-A form its joyful and celebratory starting and closing sections frame a more serene middle part. The Latin Exsultate Jubilate text sings well and encompasses a positive message of joy and peace. For ambitious choirs. Glorious!

This SATB setting of Hildegard von Bingen's Ave Generosa text uses a hauntingly joyful tonality paying homage to the mysterious story of Mary. A beautiful middle section is surrounded by contrasting modal beginning and ending sections. The juxtaposition of sustained and moving moments holds true to the composer's style while the harmonic structure and vocal construction offer something very fresh.

Ola Gjeilo has pulled from his Norwegian heritage and used the lovely Solrenning Sæle tune to set a new text by Charles Anthony Silvestri. The text speaks of winter as a time of reset; a breath before the rebirth of spring. An excellent secular work for your winter concert.

Full Score Piano Guitar and String Quartet parts for WW1548 The Lake Isle-This refreshing work from Ola Gjeilo employs a folk-like sound to capture Yeats' wonderfully descriptive words about the Lake Isle of Innisfree. The movement in the Piano the strumming of the Guitar and the richness of the Strings work together with the voices to create the imagery of a long and pleasant journey.

from Song of Solomon-Inspired by the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) this beautiful composition is an excellent choice for high school women's choruses and above.
