Madrigal Choral Sheet Music

Teachers keep coming back to Russell Robinson's O Occhi Manza Mia (O Eyes of My Beloved) for SSA, which has become the collection's most widely adopted title. Thomas Morley's Sing We and Chant It for three-part mixed voices is another perennial favorite, along with Donald Moore's Let the Song Begin for SATB. Jay Althouse's Three New Madrigals for three-part mixed rounds out the frequently ordered titles.

Donald Moore holds degrees in organ performance and music education from Kent State University and serves as Organist-Choirmaster at Pilgrim United Church of Christ in Ohio. His prolific output includes over 500 compositions across sacred, secular, and educational genres. His setting Let the Song Begin for SATB reflects his deep experience working with church choirs and his commitment to writing accessible yet musically substantial work.

Russell L. Robinson is Emeritus Professor of Music Education at the University of Florida and an accomplished conductor who has appeared at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and the Kennedy Center, as well as international festivals across six continents. His O Occhi Manza Mia demonstrates the blend of musicological knowledge and practical understanding that comes from his extensive work with honor choirs and state and national festivals.

Jay Althouse holds degrees in music education from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and brings eight years of experience as a rights and licenses administrator for a major educational music publisher to his compositional work. With more than 800 choral works in print, his Three New Madrigals for three-part mixed voices exemplifies his skill at writing for ensembles at all levels.
