In the captivating realm of SSAA choral music, discovering pieces that not only excel in musical quality but also forge a deep emotional connection with both the audience and the singers is an invaluable treasure. In this journey, we will introduce five pieces from my SSAA catalog, each weaving its unique narrative and offering an experience that goes beyond the written notes.
We embark on this journey with a piece that not only stands out as the best-selling after "Galaxies" but also shines with its sweetness and tenderness. "Almas de Barro" immerses us in a story of intersecting glances and the complexity of expressing adolescent feelings. For directors aiming to strengthen the emotional connection with their audience, this piece is a gem. Its captivating and emotive narrative will resonate in the hearts of the audience, establishing a lasting connection. Explore the sheet music here.
This contemplative work, demanding the best from each singer at the "Alleluia," has not only resonated locally at the Lawrence Memorial Chapel in Wisconsin but has also left its mark internationally. Perfect for directors looking to elevate the standard of their choirs and offer a unique experience to their singers. "O Magnum Mysterium" is not just a celebration of the miracle of birth but an invitation to explore new musical and emotional heights. Acquire the sheet music here.
"Land of Angels" is the answer. We rehearsed it with The Gesualdo Six, and after my dear friend Angelina Nicolaidou departed from this world, I didn't hesitate to create a version for SSAA. The arrangement is really easy to sing, and the piece is impactful. I hope this meaningful piece speaks to your heart, and you can create an emotional moment in your concert. For directors who want to surprise their audience and provide their singers with the opportunity to participate in something truly special. The sheet music is available here.
This introspective piece, noted for its beauty and calm, becomes a powerful tool for directors seeking moments of happiness and serenity in their concerts. The ability of "O Crux" to convey a sense of peace and hope while reflecting on the diversity of the human experience makes it an ideal choice for choirs seeking balance and craftsmanship in their repertoire.

"HUMAN" emerges as a protest and celebration of human diversity. Its powerful message and resonant notes make this piece a valuable tool for directors wanting to address significant themes in their concerts. For choirs aiming not only to impress auditorily but also to inspire through music, "HUMAN" is a striking choice. Explore the sheet music here.
With ten minutes of pure cinematic magic, "Lake of Stars" transports the audience to a magical place. For directors looking to incorporate magical moments of transformation into their concerts, the words of Anthony Silvestri offer a unique experience. The ability to take the audience to a night by a lake of stars makes this piece ideal for choirs seeking to create spectacular and memorable moments. Discover the sheet music here.
These five works are not merely notes on a sheet; they are emotional experiences that will take your audience on an unforgettable journey. Directors, immerse yourselves in the magic of choral performance and let these SSAA pieces guide you to new artistic and emotional heights. Discover it for yourself and take your choir to a higher level of connection and musical expression!
