A Choral Fanfare

Print on Demand

This shining choral is now available in SATB and SSA/TTB voicings. A Choral Fanfare has been newly recorded and a performance track is included on our Piano Trax CD. Accessible, independent voice parts that “stack” harmonically in a marcato style have made this choral a popular selection. The easy Latin Gloria and English text help make it simple to learn.

Tarantella

Carl Fischer is honored to welcome Z. Randall Stroope to the 2014 Choral Catalog with Tarantella / Jubilate Agno. The tarantella, meaning “spider dance,” was a popular Italian dance with origins in the 11th century, originates from the villages of Tanto and Tarentum (“little spider”). Portions of Christopher Smart's (1722-1771) Jubilate Agno text are also used along with made up words and those collected by the composer. The convergence of the medieval tarantella with the writings of a brilliant poet who bordered on the absurd, along with the infusion of random rhyming words by the composer, synthesizes to make dramatic lyrics to accompany this highly energized and challenging piece for TTBB choir and string quartet or optional piano. Sure to thrill audiences at any concert/festival performance.

Make Them Hear You (from the Musical Ragtime)

From the Broadway musical Ragtime by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty comes this exceptional men's choir arrangement. The powerful lyrics together with the exceptional melody make this a truly remarkable song that is destined to be a Broadway classic.
