UPC: 785147747901. English. Text source: Trad. English carol.
Healey has set a traditional English carol in a style that is ethereal and atmospheric. The choral parts combine in a way that recalls some of the loveliest writing for organ. The part that is written for the organist is supportive of the voices, but never dominates.

Reminisce nt of the beloved rocking carols that have come down through the ages, this piece has a freshness that endears it to all who hear it. The keyboard accompaniment is interesting in its use of a sixteenth-note figure that precedes beats 2 and 4 of each measure. The last verse features a beautiful descant that floats above the melody. .

This contemporary setting of the classic Latin eucharistic text finds a charming introduction and conclusion in brief quotes of Felix Mendelssohn’s familiar Songs without Words, op. 30, no. 3. Accessible phrasing and voice leading in the SAB choral parts seamlessly follow multiple modulations with adept support from the piano accompaniment, while the endearing recurrence of the opening melodic motive further unifies the piece.

UPC: 785147831006. English. Text by Chris de Silva.
An ethereal gentleness starts this piece that briefly recounts the story of the shepherds and the Magi. Choral writing with a dream-like quality supports the soloist. This is a great choice for that singer in your choir who can maintain a beautiful line, but perhaps does not possess a large range—optional notes are indicated at the end, when the melody may go a bit high for some. For cantor or soloist. 2 octaves Handbells or Handchimes.

UPC: 785147803508. English. Text Source: Trinity Sunday Text by George Herbert.
Here is a somewhat challenging piece that will be worth the effort put into it. The setting is mostly homophonic, with several areas of heterophony to paint the text as it depicts a movement forward—whether from the purging of our past sins or the desire to “run, rest, rise with thee.â€.

Text by Alan J. Hommerding.
The first words are Elizabeth's reflection after meeting the Virgin Mary. The second text is Joseph's reflection after the angel of the Lord appeared to him in his dream. The vocal forces build with each verse, culminating with an SATB cadence. The composition closes with a gentle conclusion that can be performed a cappella. Perfect for the Advent season or any Marian feast.
