Sing Me to Heaven

It was an honor to be asked by Dan Gawthrop to arrange an SSAA version of his best-selling anthem. This piece has captured the heart of many singers and listeners over the last few years, and the text is remarkable in that it elicits many different interpretations from those who examine it. I hope that I have done the piece justice in the SSAA setting - Dan and I agonized over voice-leading in a few measures, and it was worth the extra time we took to really examine some of those issues. I was fortunate to have members of Vox Caelestis and some other singing friends contribute their time to a read-through of various versions, pitch levels, etc as the arrangement took shape. It’s great to have a live “lab” choir to experiment with!

This piece can be ordered through any music retailer or through E.C. Schirmer.
