Wow...thanks for all who responded.These are what your collegues consider to be the best SA pieces:

* * * * * * * * * * * * *

I absolutely love Andrea Klouse' Kyrie in 2 part. My 6th graders learned itquickly and did it in a cncert last week.Also, look at "Where Are the Angels?" by Linda Spevacek.and "Every Child's a Promise" by Lloyd and Marci Larson.Donald Moore has some great canon arrangements, too.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Take a look at Ruth Elaine Schram's arrangements. Many of them are unisonwith an optional Part II. I attended an elementary music teachers' readingsession of her work last week, and here are her pieces from the session thatI think would be appropriate for a festival (my personal favorites are notedwith an asterisk):America the Beautiful*Oh Shenandoah*Picture a Playground (very touching--"Picture a playground filled withthe happy sound of children who dream and explore with no thought ofw a r " ) *May the Road Rise to Meet You (very beautiful)*Gloria and Alleluia (a cappella)*For the Beauty of the EarthGift of Life (beautiful!)*Swing Low, Sweet ChariotPeace Like a RiverMy World (environmental theme)Jacob's LadderUbi Caritas

1. "My Own Song "by Crystal LaPoint Kowalski, Published by Hinshaw= 2pt.absolutely beautiful and meaningful to girls.

A general recommendation is the CME series, Boosey and Hawkes, edited byDoreen Rao. I've done many pieces from this catalogue over the last tenyears with my 120-voice girls choir of 4th - 6th graders, and my 60-voiceMiddle School Chorus. They are always first-rate: challenging butaccessible, and beautifully presented.

Neat speech piece called "Too Many Cats" in two parts. Forget the composer'sname. "Manx Lullaby" by Lori Ann Dolloff is a beautiful unison piece.
