Fain Would I Change That Note. Music by Healey Willan. Words by Captain Tobias Hume:Fain would I change that noteTo which fond Love hath charm'd meLong, long to sing by rote,Fancying that that harm'd me:Yet when this thought doth come'Love is the perfect sumOf all delight!'I have no other choiceEither for pen or voiceTo sing or write.O Love! they wrong thee muchThat say thy fruit is bitter,When thy rich fruit is suchAs nothing can be sweeter.Fair house of joy and bliss,Where truest pleasure is,I do adore thee:I know thee what thou art,I serve thee with my heart,And fall before thee.Biretta Books in Chicago works in cooperation with the Estate of Healey Willan and the Healey Willan Society to promote the legacy of the Dean of Canadian Composers-Healey Willan.SATB a capella (with piano reduction provided for rehearsal purposes)

Kevin G. Pace #878991. Published by Kevin G. Pace (A0.1287904). A wonderful, sacred choral arrangement for mixed choir.  Music by Kevin G. Pace.  Text by Kathryn W. Hales. I often wonder if I’d been there On the shores of Galilee, Would I have stopped and listened toA stranger I happened to see,A man called Jesus, from Nazareth,Whose words right from the startMight come to my ears as something sweet’Would I have had a believing heart?Chorus:A believing heart, a special giftOf faith that I might seeEternal truths from God above,That I might say and do and beA willing servant committed toThe Master’s work below;A believing heart, a willing mind,To Him I’d like to show.I often wonder if I’d been thereIn another time and place,Would I have listened to Alma’s words:Or with a multitude seen the faceAnd touched the feet of Jesus Christ,Of His people been a part?From pages of Book of MormonI learn of those with believing hearts.I often wonder if I’d been thereIn Ohio or Missouri,Would I have listened to Joseph Smith,Or a jeering scorner beBecause of tradition or fear of men,Would I have quickly turned apart?Or would I have stayed and heard his words?Would I have had a believing heart?And now I live in the latter daysGod’s message I have always knownThroughout my days of mortal life,Gospel truths from parents at home,Or from missionaries bold and strong,Yet I must still choose to testify.

Published by Cat McGill (A0.887682). An original arrangement of this hauntingly beautiful folk song from Dorset. To hear how it sounds click here: https://www.facebook.com/folkycat/videos/527698484306907/Love Farewell is a song about men going off to war and saying goodbye to their lovers and families. The last verse is sung from the point of the view of the mothers left behind, saying they will never forgive the officers if their sons are not returned from war. There is NO MINIMUM ORDER quantity on this piece as I arrange all of my songs to be suitable for teaching by ear. I have taught this myself to my community choir and they've really enjoyed singing it - I hope you do too!

Gloria! But Mary wondered what his words could mean.The angel told her Do not be afraid.You will conceive and bear a son named Jesus.You are the highly favored one. Gloria! He will be great and will be called the Son of God most high And sit on David’s throne. And sit on David’s throne.His rule of Jacob’s house and kingdom will not end.His kingdom will not end. His kingdom will not end.Gloria, gloria, gloria. Gloria, gloria, gloria.Gloria, gloria, gloria. Gloria, gloria, gloria. Then Mary, as a virgin, wondered, How?He said, All things are possible with GodAs God the Holy Spirit overshadows youYou are the highly favored one. Gloria! Then Mary said, Behold, I serve the Lord.So let it be according to your word.The angel then departed and we say with him,You are the highly favored one. Gloria!

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.924058 By Miriam Stockley. By Jean Sibelius, Miriam Arlene Stockley, and Miriam Stockley. Arranged by Dominic McGonigal. Contemporary. Octavo. 3 pages. C8 Music #4361803. Published by C8 Music (A0.924058). The classic Sibelius tune Finlandia has become the unofficial national anthem of Finland. This jazz arrangement is a new twist on a classic, prompted by a kid in one of my ensembles saying, why don't you do a jazz version of Finlandia - so I did. The tune comes out well, with the same sense of pride mixed with poignancy. It's suitable for intermediate players and above. I can do bespoke arrangements for other combinations on request. See www.dominicmcgonigal.com Finlandia did not originally have words. Finnish lyrics were added, written by V A Koskenniemi. They were accepted by Sibelius as the official libretto in 1942. The English words are from a hymn We Would Be One written for the Unitarian Universalists. This arrangement has both Finnish and English words.

Choral Choir (SATB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.864441 Composed by Mark D. Templeton. 20th Century,Contemporary. Octavo. 12 pages. Mark Templeton Choral Music #2343381. Published by Mark Templeton Choral Music (A0.864441). Lesbia mi dicit semper male, commonly known as Catullus 92, consists of two elegiac couplets written by Gaius Valerius Catullus (84-54 B.C.E) for his lover, Lesbia. Lesbia was the name believed to have been given by Catullus to his mistress. Her real name was Clodia, the sexually promiscuous wife of proconsul Quintus Caecilius Metellus Celer, known as Metellus. Catullus’ earlier poem, 83, brings some context to 92. In the first part of 83, Catullus says: Lesbia keeps insulting me in front of her husband:this fills the fatuous idiot with delight. Mule, do you perceive nothing? If she shut up and ignored me that’d show healthy indifference;… In 92, Catullus expounds on the idea of why Clodia insults him in front of Metellus. Catullus reckons that he is always cursing her, and he loves her. She always curses him, so she must love him as well. In his desperation, Catullus uses his wit and humor to reason that his obsessive love for Coldia is reciprocated. This setting of 92 uses incessant driving rhythms in the women’s voices to paint the words, Lesbia mi dicit semper male nec tacet umquam de me (Lesbia always speaks ill of me, never shuts up about me). The repeating rhythms return in the men’s voices when Catullus says he does the same, quia sunt totidem mea: deprecor illam assidue (…it’s the same with me: I’m continually complaining.) The piece comes to a final rest after Catullus realizes the he will always be cursed to love her.
