Blue Moon written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart in 1934 has had many treatments over the decades. Mel Tormé made a smooth hit version in the 1940s Elvis Presley's unusual treatment made its way onto his first album in 1956 and The Marcels had a doo-wop hit with it in 1961 but ‘An American Werewolf in London’ was the first movie to associate this most romantic of songs with lycanthropy. With its timeless chord progression and the bittersweet juxtaposition of its melody and lyrics it's no wonder that this song is widely regarded as one of the greatest ever. The clever play-on-words combine luck with the blues creating theuniversal message that has touched the hearts of countless listeners and performers since its composition. This brand new arrangement by Simon Foxley & Christopher Hussey for SSA choir takes this beautifully evocative standard and updates it with a fresh pair of ears making it a really welcome addition to the Novello Choral Pops series.

Ian Venables' The Song Of The Severn is a cycle of songs in celebration of Worcestershire scored for Baritone Voice String Quartet and Piano. The Song of the Severn…clothes poems by Masefield Housman John Drinkwater and Philip Worner in sharply memorable music of bewitching lyricism idiomatic grace and rapt instinct…No lover of the early-20th-century English art song or pastoral tradition should fail to investigate this notable issue. - Andrew Achenbach Gramophone These five songs for voice with piano and string quartet accompaniment take the Severn Riverand its historical and natural associations as a common theme. They are absolutely stunning in their poignant beauty their profoundly noble and moving sense of tragedy and desolation that never turns sentimental or lachrymose and their perfect union of text and music to a level that rivals Schubert and Mahler. - James A. Altena Fanfare Magazine

The two countries Eastland and Westland want to obtain specimens for research sothey send out competing expeditions.

Thomas Moore's timeless words set for SATB Chorus by Irish folksong composer Lough Sheeling .

The Te Deum Laudamus is a single movement Choral work and was Sullivan’s last completed composition. In one movement the composer moves through all the component parts of the mass drawing them together seamlessly and expressing Sullivan’s own deeply felt faith.Composer Arthur Sullivan is known the world over for his operatic collaborations with W S Gilbert including H M S Pinafore and The Pirates of Penzance among many others. But Sullivan was also a composer of many other works among them operas Orchestral works ballets and hymns and church pieces.Among his church works Sullivan is best known for his hymn Onward Christian Soldiers and the theme of that hymn isincorporated in this Te Deum. Sullivan wrote the work on request for a Thanksgiving Service held in St Paul’s Cathedral at the close of the Boer War in South Africa. It received its first performance in 1902 in the presence of King Edward VII and other members of the royal family. That the song of thanksgiving was composed nearly two years before the end of the war perhaps demonstrated Sullivan’s patriotism.

Iain Farrington 's Bluesday for solo Organ. Composed in 2010. Dedicated to Robert Houssart. ' Judging by this bunch of new public­ations the year 2010 was a busy one for British composers of organ music though quite why it has taken six or seven years for almost all of this music to appear remains unexplained. And if one were asked to guess the most recent work in terms of 'modem language' it would be this study from Iain Farrington. Dedicated to Robert Houssart this short piece combines - as one might infer from the title - certain phraseology from musical worlds not often encountered on a concert organ whether in a church or civicbuilding but it is not merely the thematic line (such as it is) that snakes in an un­certain manner but also the impacted sense of occasional harmony that speaks in a more modem musical language. None the less this intriguing composition would work best on a small instrument and is a fascinating piece to study at home. ' - James Palmer
