About this collection
Building the High School Sound
Building the High School Sound brings together choral sheet music designed for singers finding their voices in ensemble settings. From secular classics and folk arrangements to Broadway favorites and spirituals, this collection spans styles that work for developing choirs. Popular titles like Mark Burrows' May a Rainbow Run Beside You and Scott Joplin's The Entertainer sit alongside works by accomplished arrangers like Andy Beck and Greg Gilpin. Many titles pair well with graduation, peace-themed programs, and other high school occasions.
Who it's for

- Secular, folk, world, and spiritual arrangements plus Broadway selections

Things to consider
Match voicing to your section strengths: SATB works for balanced ensembles, SSA suits soprano-heavy groups, and SAB bridges mixed and treble sections. Many titles are a cappella or light on piano accompaniment, so check the octavo details if your accompanist availability changes. Look for pieces tagged with your occasion (graduation, peace themes) if you're programming for specific events.
