About the Composer: Sally K. Albrecht

Sally K. Albrecht

Sally K. Albrecht has shaped choral music education for over forty years as a composer, conductor, and clinician with a particular gift for integrating movement into choral performance. Since 1987, she has received the ASCAP Special Music Award annually and maintains more than 600 published choral works in print, along with 75 larger-scale musicals and songbooks. Her conducting credentials include leading honor choirs at prestigious venues including Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, and The Kennedy Center across multiple decades.

For more than thirty years, Albrecht served as Director of School Choral, Vocal, and Elementary Publications at major educational publishers, including her tenure with Alfred Music. She has taught at Oakland University in Michigan, Jersey City State College in New Jersey, and Meredith College in North Carolina. Her academic background includes a B.A. from Rollins College (1976) in Music and Theater, an M.A. in Drama from the University of Miami (1977), and an M.M. in Accompanying from the same institution (1979). Albrecht currently resides in Wake Forest, North Carolina, with her husband Jay Althouse, a noted composer and arranger. She serves as past Chair of the Board of Trustees for Omicron Delta Kappa National Leadership Honor Society and holds their "Pillar of Leadership" award. In 2021, she received the Distinguished Alumna Award from both the University of Miami Frost School of Music and Rollins College, where she continues as a Board member.

Why we love this

Albrecht builds this arrangement around textural contrast and architectural clarity rather than complexity. The echoing passages and the distinctive "Sing Jubilate Deo" counterpoint section give your singers specific, rewarding musical moments to execute while keeping the overall learning curve accessible. This is the kind of piece where small choirs and large ones both sound polished because the writing serves the voices rather than testing them.

What to expect

The piece radiates celebratory confidence. Rhythmic momentum propels the singing forward, while the textural variety in the echo and counterpoint sections prevents predictability. There is genuine joy in this music, but it is dignified joy, befitting the sacred text.

Who it's for

This octavo works for intermediate to advanced high school and college choirs as well as experienced church and community ensembles. Directors seeking repertoire that sounds impressive without demanding virtuosic technique will find an excellent fit here.

How to get the most out of it

  • Balance the echoing sections carefully. The first statement should have full presence, with the echo slightly recessed in dynamics and perhaps a touch slower in articulation to create clear separation.
  • Bring out the counterpoint in the "Sing Jubilate Deo" section by assigning it distinct tonal colors. If your arrangement uses the optional trumpet and snare drum parts, let those reinforce the rhythmic drive and help singers lock in.
  • Shape the joyful character through rhythmic precision rather than rushing. The majestic quality emerges when the ensemble commits to exact articulation and uniform phrasing within each section.

How to use it

Program this as a statement piece on a spring concert or as an inspired closer for a sacred-music service. It pairs well with both traditional hymn-based literature and contemporary spiritual arrangements, giving you programming flexibility across the season.

Skills your students will build

  • Executing echo and call-and-response textures with rhythmic precision
  • Balancing counterpoint while maintaining harmonic blend
  • Shaping long phrases through dynamic contrast within a celebratory character
  • Integrating optional instrumental parts (trumpet and snare drum) into vocal rehearsal
