Sacred Choral Sheet Music

Teachers keep coming back to Alice Parker's "Hark, I Hear the Harps Eternal: SATB, a cappella Choral Octavo," a piece that works equally well for concert and festival contexts. John Leavitt's "Festival Sanctus: SATB Choral Octavo" and Robert T. Gibson's "Down by the Riverside: 2-Part Choral Octavo" are steady choices for building repertoire across ability levels. Undine S. Moore's "Daniel, Daniel, Servant of the Lord: SSAATTBB, a cappella Choral Octavo" offers singers looking for richer harmonic texture and cultural depth.

Recent additions include Roxanna Panufnik's "Glory be to the World: SATB, accompanied Choral Octavo" and Judith Bingham's "Epiphany for SATB Choir and Organ," both published in 2026. Thomas A. Dorsey's gospel standard "Precious Lord, Take My Hand: SATB a cappella Choral Octavo" arrived this spring, giving teachers another essential spiritual arrangement for mixed voices.

Jay Althouse brings over 800 works in print, with "The Little Drummer Boy / Peace on Earth: SATB Choral Octavo" capturing his gift for accessible yet substantial choral writing. His background in music education and eight years as a rights administrator shaped his understanding of what teachers actually need.

Sally K. Albrecht is known for integrating choral movement into her compositions. She has conducted honor choirs at Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, and the Kennedy Center, and her ASCAP awards since 1987 reflect her consistent output of over 600 popular choral publications.

Greg Gilpin's work appears frequently on concert stages from Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center to the Sydney Opera House and Royal Festival Hall. His reputation as both composer and conductor gives his pieces a performer's credibility that teachers and singers trust.

Mark Hayes commands a catalog of over 1,750 published works as a pianist, composer, and arranger of international standing. His "The Prayer: SATB Choral Octavo" represents his skill at bridging classical and contemporary idioms for church and concert use.
