About this arrangement

SATB choir (divisi), piano SKU: LO.15-3863H Composed by Bryan Sharpe. Choral. Concert, General. Octavo. Heritage Music Press #15/3863H. Published by Heritage Music Press (LO.15-3863H). ISBN 9780787774585.This SATB divisi concert piece was inspired by those who leave us too soon and reminds us that they live on in our memories. The piece opens with a piano motif establishing the melodic material on which will be developed. Upon the entrance of the voices, a unison melody soon cascades into falling SSA harmonies and echoes. The piece picks up tempo with a rhythmic drive and a TB feature that expands into full choir before going into a developing section that introduces the Latin phrase “Stellae in Aeternum” meaning “Forever with the stars.” A broad musical climax features numerous overlapping independent melodies previously featured before a dramatic final key change and a slow, soft ending.
