Forbes, Guy
New Other Sacred
This Psalm setting provides cathedral-style grandeur in only two treble parts. The opening and closing sections of its ABA’ form put the two choral parts in dialogue over sustained organ chords, while the triumphant middle section’s homophonic choral parts alternate with trumpet stop solos. The text is especially suitable for Evensong, Thanksgiving, or festival services.
SA and organ, English. Easy-Medium.
New Secular
This simple but sophisticated pentatonic piece conveys the spirituality of nature with echoing and canonic statements of a haunting original melody. Kodaly educators will find the piece particularly teachable and rewarding. The flute obbligato may be played on a transverse flute, an alto recorder, or a Native American flute in B pentatonic minor—or omitted if necessary.
SSA with flute obbligato, English. Easy.
Farewell....TC-285.....$1.70 “The
sound of flamenco,
faint and receding, leaves an ache.”
Sinuous
flamenco rhythms highlight this image of sunset on the beach, as the
romance of
the day fades and the new moon brings the surge of another tide. The
poem is by
Lauri Coltri.”

life, can daydream himself to an Irish “happy place” for the solace of
solitude and nature. Paula Tillen has captured the dreamy
longing with of the text a simple yet memorable melody, underlaid with
subtle rhythmic patterns.

A bouncy shanty with nonsense syllable interludes and refrains tells the cautionary tale of a sailor and a girl of the town—and this time it is the sailor who is left holding the baby.

Spring....TC-291....$2.25 Preview
“O,
when I was in love with
you,” begins the cheeky A.E. Housman poem about love that’s left
behind—on
purpose. Open fifth drones on “la la la” recall the sturdy peasant
sound of a
hurdy-gurdy, while the larky melody in 6/8 time is a modern tribute to
medieval
dance tunes.
SSAA a
cappella; English. Medium.
Winter....TC-294....$1.70
The simple poem by William Wordsworth describes his sorrow after the death of Lucy, unobtrusive as a violet in life, leaving an aching regret when her death makes such a “difference to me.” This largely homophonic setting presents subtle rhythmic nuances with some hemiola, and one imitative entrance at “fair as a star.”
SSA and Piano, English. Easy-Medium.
