The Colorado American Choral Directors Association Summer Workshop (Englewood, July 21-23, 2014) includes my new Advent anthem “Prepare the Royal Highway” in a reading session of Christmas choral music with clinician Raymond Ortiz. Here’s a description of the piece from the Augsburg Fortress website: “This celebratory anthem features elegant choral writing that will inspire your choir and congregation alike. Easy to learn and satisfying to sing, the anthem weaves four-part, two-part, and unison textures with a tambourine part that will add a festive element to your Advent season.” You can preview the score below.
