ing classic traditional choral music standards

that have inspired, educated and thrilled singers,

choirs, congregations and audiences for years. The

tradition continues in our choral music series as

we present new and exciting works designed to

meet the understanding, abilities and tastes of

worshipers and performers today.

The styles, texts, subjects and musical elements of

each piece have been carefully weighed and the

music, edited, arranged and written to meet a wide

range of worship styles and performance situa-

tions. Writers for Carl Fischer are among the most

outstanding and respected in this field of music.

The standard of musical excellence we present in

each choral work is designed to meet the chal-

lenges faced by professional directors all over the

world who wish to offer quality repertoire.

We accept the challenge of providing choral

groups everywhere the music that fits their needs,

thrills the soul and heightens the skills of every

singer who performs a Carl Fischer choral work.

Building on our past reputation, we continue to

grow in offering variety and accessible music for

church, school and professional choirs.
