Student Choir News

Student Choir '19-20!

Here we go again! Please navigate the clips below from prior performances to stay on your game. There are rehearsal links on the "Student Choir Web Page"

Diocesan Choral Festival!!!

Our student choir participated in this annual event a while back and sounded amazing! Here are two cuts that you don't want to miss:

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Let There Be Light

Watch one of our prior National Anthem performances by clicking Here, (Official; Good video but 'dry' sound track) and Here, (Cell phone; More ambient sound and crowd response, but poor visual)

Also, I recently found a reasonably good audio (distant video) of our performance at a 2015 Ducks game. This happened on an evening that our Jr. High students were unavailable and we pulled it off rather well with 4th-6th grade students! Click Here

Listen to the studio recording of my arrangement of the Anthem by Clicking Here!

The new School Choir CD sales have leveled off at about the 200 mark. We have plenty more for sale! Pick yours up at the school office for just $10.00!

Obtain Sheet Music

New Publications From WLP

5 songs from the "Water" collection have been accepted for publication by "World Library Publications" Look for "Call On The Lord" in March '17, followed by "Heaven and Earth Are Wed", "Water", "The Sound of One Voice" and "Do Not Let Your Hearts Be Troubled".

Octavos from the "I'll Follow" Collection

OCP picked up my song "Good and Faithful Servant" for publication. This one is now available in octavo format. (Click the song title to place order.)

The Christmas carol "Give Jesus a Dwelling Place" and the Easter hit "He is Risen" are also available in Octavo form from Oregon Catholic Press. Just click on the titles to place an order. OCP also carries my "Canticle of Zechariah" from the "Psalms & Canticles" CD.

To obtain Manuscript for other songs you've heard on the"Water" collection, the "I'll Follow" collection or the "Psalms & Canticles" collection please contact me via email at andrew@andreweverson.com with the name of the song and how many copies you'll be using and I will send you a PDF copy over the web or via snail-mail for you to duplicate. I am currently charging $1.00 per copy and I am trusting that the "Honor System" will suffice as a contract.

Every song has a story to tell. You can dig in more right here if you are a true junkie for poetry, lyric and song background. Songs marked I.F. are from the "I'll Follow" CD. Recordings from the "Psalms and Canticles" CD are as close to the scripture as possible, so David would get most of the credit for that!
