Come, Let Us Worship: Cycle of Song Vol 2 (19-30 singers)
The anthems in this collection are designed for small church choirs, though they certainly work well with larger choirs too. The fact is that the vast majority of our UU congregations are pretty small, and they have small choirs. 7-10 singers is about average, and many of those choirs aren’t sure a tenor is going to show up on Sunday. This collection is meant to be a resource for those choirs to sing beautiful, well-crafted, accessible music that actually sounds like the faith we proclaim.
Volume 1 of this series set texts by a variety of authors, and included pieces for major holidays and seasons of the church year. Volume 2 includes 8 pieces designed to pair with a call to worship by the Rev. Gretchen Haley, senior minister of Foothills Unitarian in Ft. Collins, CO. Only one of the pieces, Come, Let Us Worship, is a direct setting of her text. The others are lyrical adaptations of Gretchen’s words, done with permission of the author. Each piece could be used in conjunction with the call to worship that inspired it, but they also work just fine as stand-alone pieces.
Purchase includes an unlimited print license for ONE congregation.
