How Can I Keep From Singing

On Earth Has Dawned this Day of Days


Bankson, Jeremy J. , Morning Star Music Publishers

This work is an original anthem appropriate for the Easter season. The piece begins with a brief brass fanfare followed by a unison statement by the choir, and then bursts into a four part "Alleluia." Instruments are added as the piece develops until brass, percussion, and handbells are all used on the climactic finale.

Processio Christus est stella matutina


Highben, Zebulon M., Morning Star Music Publishers

After an emotive opening by the solo cello (may substitute alto sax), the choir enters with rich chords against an original chant melody sung by a soloist. Handbells or handchimes then enter with random pitches that add to the mysterious and meditative nature of this piece. No additional handbell part needed.

Spirit Open My Heart


Duck, Ruth, arr. Fedak, Alfred V., Morning Star Music Publishers

They Crucified My Lord


Spriritual, arr. Burkhardt, Michael, Morning Star Music Publishers

Taken from the major work Love Unknown, Burkhardt's treatment of the spiritual is haunting and evocative. The handbells, organ, and optional timpani sound repeated notes to provide a dirge underpinning, and a caller and chorus texture is particularly effective.
