Shenandoah

for SSA choir and optional piano accompaniment

by Jennifer Durham

“Shenandoah” is a new, rich arrangement for women’s voices. The piano accompaniment is optional but does provide support and some additional harmonies. Your women’s choir or trio will find “Shenandoah” to be well worth the effort.

This piece is an excellent concert choice and would also be very appropriate for contests, festivals, and literary events.

	A Clear Midnight for SATB choir and piano RCL-011	SATB	4'20"	English	Campbell, Rich	Info/Listen/Buy »
A setting of the brief yet powerful poem by Walt Whitman (from “Leaves of Grass”). The score takes its cue from the meditative nature of the text. There is a contemplative tone throughout, laced with subtle harmonies and perhaps inspired by the works of Randall Thompson. The score quietly expresses the expansive feeling one gets […]

The modern Chapel is a meeting-place for diverse musical expression, a place where choral polyphony has long had a home. The term “a cappella” (“in the style of the chapel”) evokes the sound of a Renaissance chorus unaided by any church organ. This original collection of 14 sacred and biblical rounds (a “poor man’s polyphony”) […]
	Are Friends Delight or Pain for double SATB chorus (SATB + SATB) SWM-002a	SATB+SATB	1' 45"	English	Kaulkin, Michael	Info/Listen/Buy »
“Are Friends Delight or Pain?” is a brief a cappella double-choir movement (SATB + SATB, ~1’45”) excerpted from Cycle of Friends, setting Emily Dickinson’s epigram with concentrated intensity. The entire piece rests on a single sustained E—a pedal point whose meaning keeps shifting as the harmony moves through changing modes and colors.
	Away in a Manger for mixed choir and soprano solo GTT-014xx	SATB	2'40"	English	Thornett, Gordon	Info/Listen/Buy »
This a cappella arrangement of the well-known Christmas carol, “Away in a Manger” is set for SATB, and also features a soprano soloist in the introduction to each verse, at the end and (optionally) in the first verse.

	Mass of Reflection (BCP 1979, Rite Two) for SATB/unison voices and keyboard CHR-1501a	SATB ⋅ Unison	6'30"	English	Fawcett, David	Info/Listen/Buy »
An attractive and accessible setting of the Rite Two Holy Communion Liturgy from the 1979 Book of Common Prayer of the Episcopal Church. Intended primarily for use in churches where congregation and choir sing the service together, it could be used by congregation alone, as the melody line does not rise high. Ideally, though, an […]
	Peace on Earth for SSATB Choir, unaccompanied SDE-012	SSATB	6'	English	Dole, Sanford	Info/Listen/Buy »
An English translation of the poem “Friede auf Erden” by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer (1825-1898) is set for SSATB choir unaccompanied. Referencing the Christmas story, this setting brings to life the text with lush harmonies freely changing key centers as the story progresses. Each of the four stanzas ends with a variation on the musical material […]
	Poor Wayfarin’ Stranger for SATB choir, piano, and optional trumpet JDM-004	SATB	4'	English	Durham, Jennifer	Info/Listen/Buy »
This beloved folk tune has been arranged with optional, muted trumpet (the timbre adds to the mood of the piece). The piano accompaniment expands the 4-part harmony of the choir to suggest more contemporary harmony with a few jazz chords. It’s not overdone, however; “Poor Wayfarin’ Stranger” is still a traditional, compelling portrait of a […]
	To Music for mixed chorus a cappella PGN-002	SATB	5'	English	Gibson, Paul	Info/Listen/Buy »
Word painting of a raw, intense poem by Paul Cummings is the essence of this homage to the miracle of music, which begins: Your harmony invades my being; / my body is captured by the embrace / of a melody that leads me out of dark places.
