If Thou Wilt, Remember- SATB, Pinao, Oboe Lighthouse Music Publications
Set to a poem by Christina Rossetti, this piece should be kept simple, honest and free. Performers should refrain from any gushing romanticism, however some rubato and freedom in the line, especially in the oboe solo, is appropriate. A gorgeous addition to the mixed choir repertoire.
Sweet Child- SSA, Piano Lighthouse Music Publications
This touching lullaby set for treble choir and piano is simple in its harmonic construction. Featuring a layering of duple on triple rhythms accenting an easy rocking feel, it is accessible and well suited to high school and community level choirs. The original text offers a heartfelt glimpse of a parent cradling their child on the brink of peaceful sleep. A box of tissues might be advised.
