Rounds and

Chants

Project developed by

Jane Ramseyer Miller

Artistic Director in Residence, GALA Choruses

Compiled and edited by

Mark Howarth

of the Twin Cities Gay Men's Chorus

Page 2: Rounds and Chants Index-Print - Home | Gala Choruses€¦ · I Love the Mountains Jane Ramseyer Miller 13. Irish Toast, An J. David Moore 14. No More Secrets, No More Lies Martin

This winter I put out an invitation to composers to submit

original rounds and chants to be introduced at GALA Festival

2012. The compositions needed to teachable by rote in 5

minutes or less and available to be freely shared, printed,

taught, sung and performed by our choruses.

The composers represented in this collection have contributed

these short pieces for GALA choruses. You are welcome to

perform them without charge within the parameters listed on

the bottom of each page. Many of these composers also have

websites describing their other compositions, so check out

their other music and support our LGBT-friendly artists!

You can download the complete collection as a PDF formatted

for print or for display on tablets and smartphones at

http://galachoruses.org/artistic-directors/rounds/

Thanks to all the artists who contributed to this project. If you

have additional rounds to offer to our choruses, send them my

way and we’ll continue to post them. We are particularly

looking for LGBT-themed repertoire.
