This piece by Benjamin M. Culli paints a beautiful image of heaven. Arranged for SATB and piano, Culli treats the text with a lyrical tune and supportive piano accompaniment. The piece builds and modulates in the middle section, then finishes quietly in the original key. A moving selection for All Saints' Day.
A rest remains for all the weary;Arise, sad heart, and grieve no more;Though long the way, and dark and dreary,It opens to the golden shore.Before His throne the Lamb will lead you,On heav'nly pastures He will feed you,Cast off your burden, come with haste;Soon toil and strife will be unraveled,The weary way that you have traveled,Sweet is the rest that you will taste.
The Father's house has many a dwelling,And there for you a place will be.With perfect love His heart is wellingWho loved you from eternity.His precious blood the Lamb has givenThat you may share the joys of heaven,And now He calls out far and near:'You weary souls, cast off your sorrow;My light shines bright upon the morrow.Come, sweetest rest awaits you here!'
There rest and peace in endless measureWill be ours through eternity;No grief, no care, will mar our pleasure,And untold joy our lot will be.Oh, had we wings to hasten yonder—No more this sinful world to ponder—To join the glad, triumphant band!Arise, my soul, forget all sadness,For peace awaits you, joy and gladness—The perfect rest and promised land.

At the end of December 1930, Nino Rota travelled to the United States of America where he was accepted at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia upon the recommendation of Arturo Toscanini. One year later, he composed Four Canons: four short compositions the lyrics of which are based on Italian love poems from the 15th and 16th centuries. The madrigal-like style of the unison canons testifies to an innovativeness which goes far beyond a simple study work.

Midwinter Song is a Christmas carol that calls us to love, faith, and hope. With a beautiful and supportive piano accompaniment and accessible vocal lines, this work will appeal to a wide variety of levels. Susan Labarr's Midwinter Song is a new work for Advent or Christmas. Labarr opens the piece with a gentle piano solo that perfectly captures the mystery of the poetry—the words seem to travel out of a time in the deep past and give homage to the neglected art of both rhythm and rhyme. In particular, the description of the world gathering in amber halls in the first verse wonderfully conjures images of medieval casltes or mead halls lit only with firelight and candles, full with the sound of carols.
