A Moment's Measure
Composer: Allan Robert Petker
Author/Lyricist: Kimberly Ayers and Allan Petker
Voicing: SATB
Released: January 2022
Difficulty: Medium
Listen
''Living in the moment'' is a mantra and goal that is as easily forgotten as it is to pursue. The poem in this motet proclaims its value in colorful ways. Each verse is followed by a Latin phrase that coalesces the thoughts in flowing counterpoint. The middle section plays with the words from which the piece gets its title. This is a lovely and thoughtful piece for high school, college and community choir concerts.

A Young Man's Lament
Composer: Nick Strimple
Author/Lyricist: Paiute Indian, translated by Mary Austin
Voicing: SATB
Released: January 2022
Difficulty: Advanced
Listen
The Paiute Indian words are a cry of pain and loss that would be true for any father who lost his son. But the Indian imagery brings us outside and touches us inside. Strimple's musical writing is not multicultural but contemporary and incorporates modern western harmonies. This makes sense when you realize Dr. Strimple's tribute is to honor his teacher and friend, Robert H. Young. It is a touching musical and textual statement. Difficult.

Author/Lyricist: Traditional Scottish
Voicing: SATB
Released: January 2022
Difficulty: Medium Advanced
Listen
First made popular in performances by the famous choral ensemble, Chanticleer, the composer has revoiced it for SATB choir. The music is original although its connection to Irish Celtic music is undeniable, and quite intentional. The words have no meaning but continue the essence of the folk song idiom it is celebrating. It is a joyful concert piece with a challenging title to pronounce.

If Only The World - Ubi Caritas

We believe the ''Ubi Caritas'' chant came from the 8th century, and it has been further enhanced by many of the best composers over the ages. This setting brings many fresh colors into view, but most notable is the narrative section, which requires singers to complete the sentence, ''If only the world could...'' and share it at a point in the music. It is a powerful and unique addition to this song of unity and love. For high school and college choirs.
