Women's Choir


Rachel Upton, Women’s Choir

The Road Home
SSAA, a cappella
Stephen Paulus
Paulus Publications
The Road Home features harmonies and text that will warm the hearts of your singers and listeners. The pentatonic tune is taken from The Southern Harmony Songbook of 1835. The theme of “wandering”, “returning” and “coming home” unite with the pentatonic melody and create a timeless and universal appeal that is powerful to all.

Light of a Clear Blue Morning
SSAA divisi, a cappella
Craig Hella Johnson
Hal Leonard
Not only for SATB choir! Let your ladies shine with this arrangement of Dolly Parton’s Light of a Clear Blue Morning. With a great opportunity to showcase a soloist, this work is sure to put smiles on the faces of your listeners.

Lorelei
SSA, piano
Clara Schuman, arr. Brandon Williams
Hal Leonard
Lorelei provides your ladies an opportunity to sing authentic Romantic-era lied composed by a female composer! This piece was a birthday gift from Clara Schumann to her husband, Robert, in 1843. Your accompanist will also enjoy this piece as it artfully displays Clara Schumann’s mastery of keyboard technique.

The Diagnosis and Correction of Vocal Faults
James C. McKinney
Popular for more than two decades among college voice teachers and their students, this outstanding, authoritative vocal pedagogy text is an invaluable manual. It thoroughly examines the vocal problems prospective voice teachers will encounter daily in the teaching studio and choral rehearsal. The author’s approach is a unique one, based on diagnostic procedures similar to those used by doctors. As each vocal fault is presented, its identifying characteristics or symptoms are stated, its possible causes are discussed, and corrective procedures are suggested.
