Zibuo kle Martinaityte tells about the background of Aletheia (2022) for mixed choir (SSSSAAAATTTTBBBB):“Ale theia is variously translated from Greek as 'unconcealedness', 'revealing' or 'unclosedness'. It is uncovering of the Truth - the one we are afraid to face, the truth that can only be expressed directly through the pre-verbal communication. How do you find words for the horrors of the war, for all unimaginable global atrocities? How do you even allow yourself to feel it out? Solely through art, through music that offer a safe space and a formalized framework for processing these accumulated complex emotions and sharing them with others in a moment. This piece has no verbal text and it is based on various combinations of vowels and consonants, thus connecting us on a deeper level through the immediate emotional experience. The work is commissioned by the Lithuanian National Radio (LRT Klasika) The war in Ukraine in spring of 2022 had an impact on all of us and shattered my deeply rooted Lithuanian identity. When the freedomis threatened and innocent people are dying, it is hard to make sense out of the reality.Yet there is poetry even in the worst nightmares. I was imagining that the only instrument people have even in situations of destruction, in the midst of the war, is their VOICE. It brought back memories of my youth when 'Singing revolution' was taking place in the Baltic countries. Human voice was the only weapon that people used to express their determination for freedom and independence. Voice is our first and the very last instrument we have in our lifetime. Thinking in these terms brings almost a sacred dimension to the voice as an expression of the life itself - from the very first baby's scream until the last breath and whisper.” Duration c. 15' The works of New York -based Lithuanian composer Zibuokle Martinaityte (b. 1973) have been lauded as breathtaking and profoundly moving. Her stimulating music bristles with energy and tension and revolves often around the subject of beauty, which she calls botha guiding principle and an aesthetic measure for sonic quality.

HYMNS OF WORSHIP takes a bold, fresh look into the heart of today’s original songs of worship; foundational songs of faith... the hymns of the Church. Hymns are an expression of our adoration of the only true God. Through hymns we praise Him for His mighty acts, exalt Him in worship, give thanks for His love and mercy, and declare His wisdom, power and majesty. In hymns we contrast the sinful nature of man with the redeeming nature of a loving God. And with hymns we sing; with loftiness of concept and language rich in reverence and dignity, we sing! Hymns give voice to our beliefs, causing our spirits to rise, soaring on wings of faith.WORD Music Publications is honored to introduce this hallmark new book for choir, soloists and orchestra, arranged by the creative team of David Wise and David Shipps. We believe in these powerful songs of the Church. We believe in the tradition of singing Hymns. We are committed to keeping these songs active in the musical repertoire oftoday’s Church. We believe in their relevance. We believe in the truth of the doctrine and theology taught through the lyrics of these timeless songs. It is our hope that the compelling new arrangements found in Hymns of Worship will instill in you a new vision for these songs. And we pray that they will inspire you and your choir to sing them with a new voice and a fervent and renewed passion for declaring the greatness of our God!

Hymns revisited. Hymns reimagined. Hymns reinvented. Hymns relived. Hymns rewritten.At this point we've seen everything done with hymns that we can possibly think of. And you may be saying the last thing you want or need is another book of hymns. And some might be inclined to agree. Except...What if, instead of working so hard to change them or improve them, we focus on revealing the true nature, power, and majesty of our favorite hymns? Rather, to be true to them, and frame them in their best light by rediscovering a fresh appreciation of their well-deserved place in our houses of worship. Let our choirs raise their voices in unbridled passion, fed by the awe-inspiring, rich, theological and doctrinal truths buried deep within these tremendous songs of the Faith. Let our spirits rise with the soaring melodies, and once again give voice to our praise of the immortal, invisible, only-wise God! And, more than anything else, let us rediscover the joy that comes when we encourage our congregations to raise our joys and triumphs high, as together the Church proclaims, Then Sings My Soul, to the greatness of our God.While each great arrangement in this book stands alone, Then Sings My Soul is designed to be presented as a through-composed worship service of hymns, scripture, and inspirational readings for Choir, Congregation, and Worship Leaders, created and orchestrated by Cliff Duren. DVD Accompaniment Track, Orchestration, and Stem Mixes available.
