A compact multi-themed choral collection for unaccompanied mixed chorus - and in the best sense, a best of current song arrangements! With 35 contemporary song arrangements, the choral collection offers the right song for many occasions: for concerts, weddings, and other celebrations, for Christmas time, or even for ending a choir rehearsal with a nocturne. The focus of the collection lies in folk songs, love songs, nocturnes, and Christmas carols. All the song arrangements were composed in the last fifteen years, and were mainly commissioned for Carus choral collections published as part of the LIEDERPROJEKT - the charitable project supporting singing with children. the works of around 30 highly experienced arrangers are brought together in the volume, including Matt hias E. Becker, Ludwig Bohme, Wolfram Buchenberg, Thomas Gabriel, Gunther Martin Gottsche, John Hoybye, Veit Hubner, Burkhard Kinzler, Giacomo Mezzalira, Vytautas Miskinis, Vic Nees, Peter Schindler, Robert Sund, Christoph Schonherr, Jozef Świder and Alan Wilson. Their arrangements reflect the variety of styles - from contemporary arrangements in classic harmonisations to pieces from jazz, pop, folk, and dance music - with which today's composers can breathe new life into traditional melodies and texts. The song repertoire is also distinguished by its wide variety: classics of the German folk song and Christmas carol repertoire (Kein schoner Land, Leise rieselt der Schnee, etc.) are included in the choral collection as well as excursions into the song repertoire of other countries (La vie en rose, Twinkle, twinkle, little star, etc.) All the arrangements are of easy to medium difficulty, so making this new music, with its wide range of styles, accessible to as many choirs as possible. Audio samples of most of the arrangements are available at www.carus-verlag.com/2210 to get to know the works. Complete recordings are available as a separate digital album under the title LIEDER - folksongs for choir on all the popular music platforms.
