An Irish Blessing
An Irish Blessing, TTBB a cappella (1997)
Rock Oakeson served for several years as Pianist for the Salt Lake Men’s Choir, and during this time was often asked to arrange and compose pieces for the group. At one point he was asked to create a “signature” piece to be used at concerts and church performances, often as the encore. The result was this setting of the traditional Irish prayer, familiar to many. Slow and mellow, with a wandering sense of harmony, this piece is ideal both for the concert hall and church service. It is intermediate in difficulty.

With Beautiful Savior we tried to create the sincerity and genuine love of Jesus through a child’s eyes. Perhaps you will see the beautiful light that surrounds us, or maybe hear birds singing. Maybe even a music box on the second verse. Whatever you hear, we hope to express the perfect beauty of our Savior.

As we started to put this arrangement together we imagined a small family of pioneers crossing the American plains. During the introduction, verses, and ending we tried to portray this family’s relentless and plodding footsteps in the viola part. During the interludes between verses we imagined the young mother and father reflecting on their journey at the end of a trying day. Perhaps contemplating both the difficulty of their task as well as their love for each other, and their hope in the Savior.
A traditional spiritual beautifully arranged by David A. Zabriskie that reminds us of the sometimes-painful growth associated with mortality, as well as the sweet peace and love we can experience at home.

With this arrangement we wanted to attempt to capture a feeling of timelessness, of eternity. The constant drone in one of the violin parts during the first verse hearkens to a bagpipe, an instrument familiar to the region of this tune’s origin. By the constant sound of the bagpipe drone, and this beautiful melody, we aspire to represent our existence before coming to the earth, and the absence of time in heaven. The second and third verses represent our striving and experience gained through our earthly state. We hope you notice in the fourth verse that the bagpipe drone returns, and the familiar melody is stretched and pulled in places we may not expect, alluding to the subjectivity of time, or the eternal nature of our existence.

On Christmas
Rock Oakeson
SATB
On Christmas
Rock Oakeson writes: “On Christmas,” was written as a commission for chamber choir. The choir specifically told me they wanted something “schmaltzy” (as they put it), so I wrote this with the intention of making it sound a bit like something you would hear on a popular Christmas CD — something a cappella and Henry-Manciniesque. They loved it. Full of seventh chords, it is intermediate in difficulty, and although mildly chromatic, it is firmly planted in the key of C-Major.

Once in Royal David’s City – Alexander and Aubrey Woods, arrangers
For this hymn we envisioned a bird’s eye view of the earth shortly before the birth of Jesus Christ. As the whirling lines of the violins come together and pull apart throughout this arrangement, we wanted to represent a feeling of excitement and anticipation in the heavens and on the earth before this defining moment in our world’s history. We imagine soaring down from the heavens, and across the holy land as the event draws closer. At the finish we are left with a startlingly peaceful scene of a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

Including this piece was another suggestion from someone very dear to us. There is no other composer that has influenced the history of music more that Johann Sebastian Bach. We feel that Bach’s works are so inspired that they transcend time, and the instruments that they are written for. We are so happy to present this familiar piece from Bach’s Well-Tempered Clavier on the violin and viola. In it, we feel that Bach shares a lifetime of wisdom in less than three minutes.

During the introduction we imagined flickering starlight casting a glow on a beautiful manger scene. Each verse depicts the pure simplicity of this humble unaffected setting. In between verses, our interludes represent our internal emotional reaction to our Savior.
“Stand as a Witness,” an award-winning arrangement by Kathleen Holyoak with SSAA or SATB voicing, if suitable for any worship service. Bach’s melody is haunting, the arrangement speaks to the hearts and a cello obbligato adds a warmth to the SSAA or SATB voicing. This is one arrangement you will want to add to your choral library collection. Gary Croxall’s words make a statement to all who follow Christ.

There is a Balm in Gilead – Alexander and Aubrey Woods, arrangers.
We included this title at the suggestion of a dear friend, and we are so glad we did. This traditional spiritual encapsulates the remorse we sometimes feel after making mistakes or the disappointment we feel if our actions have let down our Heavenly Father. Most importantly, it portrays the miraculous way that only Jesus Christ can heal us.
