CCDA Series

The California Choral Directors Association is proud to offer this distinguished choral series that will include music generated from CCDA activities.

First of all, the CCDA/George Heussenstamm Choral Composition Competition at ECCO is an annual contest that invites California composers to submit manuscripts which are judged by three CCDA members. The winners of the competition receive a free trip to ECCO and have their piece presented to, and sung by, the conference attendees. They also get the option of having their piece considered for this series. The competition which began in 2016 is funded for a total of twelve years by the generous donation of retired teacher/composer/author George Heussenstamm. (www.GeorgeHeussenstamm.com)

Secondly, CCDA is proud to commission top-level composers, on an annual basis, to write new music for our honor choirs. These composers are also offered the opportunity to be considered for our series. We are proud to create these unique opportunities for composers from around the country to collaborate with our amazing honor choir singers and our excellent guest conductors.

CCDA is proud to "lead the way" in creating new music for our profession, and in giving opportunities for new and professional composers to continue to develop their craft.

	She Lingers On Composer: Zanaida Robles Author/Lyricist: Zanaida Robles Voicing: SSA Released: January 2021 Difficulty: Medium Listen Commissioned by the California Choral Directors Association, here is a piece that touches on the subject of depression in an artful and meaningful way. Using only a few words the notes swim through the deep waters of depression; first feeling the sensation of drowning, then remembering to swim to the surface to take a breath. This piece offers a beautiful way to address an issue that is, unfortunately, flourishing, especially in young circles. Medium in difficulty. See the Music

	The Cloths of Heaven Composer: Jasper Randall Author/Lyricist: W. B. Yeats Voicing: SATB, Divisi Released: January 2019 Difficulty: Medium Advanced Listen We are very proud to have been selected by the California Choral Director's Association (CCDA) to serve as the publisher for their choral series. CCDA promotes new choral works through competitions and commissions, and this piece is the first to be published in the series. The Yeats' text is a classic, and the musical setting is expressive and descriptive of the text, in 21st century harmonies. An excellent choice for advanced high school, college and community choirs.
