Australian Choral Anthology Volume 2 - SA choir
By choral
Regular price
$30.00
9 works for SA choir with distinctly Australian content, composed by various Australian composers.
A ‘call for scores’ requested that the word content must be of ‘distinctly Australian flavour’. More than 40 works were submitted, obviously more than one volume! Hence, three volumes have emerged with one each for SATB choirs (mostly with piano accompaniment); a SA choir; and choir with instruments other than piano (with separate instrument parts). As a result, their words have captured our Australian fabric; gum trees, many types of birds - kookaburras, magpies, currawong, even the Indian miner bird, and more - brumbies, bushfires, climate, seasons, and of course, arrangements of traditional folk songs.
Overall, we have tried to make this project as accessible as possible to ensure that this Australian music is heard and appreciated by many and enjoyed by the singers.
Multiple choir copies of any of the works can be purchased individually under license at very reasonable rates. Please contact keats@wirripang.com.au

SAA choir and piano, c.3'00
A setting of the Dickinson poem, this choral work is ideal for high school aged girls. Whether the words of this beautiful poem are sung as to a deep friend, an unrequited love, or even God, this achingly gentle setting lilts and flows gracefully through the registers of young voices. An ideal vehicle for concert performance or competition this setting is a joy for performers and audiences alike.
Composed 2011

SAA Traditional Negro Spiritual, c.2'25
The traditional spirituals which have derived from the African American slaves of the late 18th through early 19th centuries provide a wonderful opportunity for choirs to not only experience this incredibly powerful music, but also to stir the emotional responses of their audiences through clever and often subtle use of dynamics and expression.
