I have a 7th grade boys chorus of 39 boys, ranging from unchanged to a minimal range. I would like to have them sing in 2 parts, but I am struggling to find pieces that both parts are in a good range for them.

I am president of the Kodaly Association of Southern California and am interested in obtaining packets of music for beginning and middle stages of boy's changing voices. We are holding a workshop with Dr. Steve Kronauer as the clinician and leader of a reading session. He suggested that I contact you for desirable music. We will probably settle on five to seven pieces.
If you would send the sampling mentioned on the home page, Steve and I can select those for the workshop.
Thanks for your help, Connie Teffeteller 661.251.6186 President, KASC
I am currently teaching a class in Choral Methods and Materials where we cover methods and materials for all grade levels through adults. I love to share Cambiata Press materials with the class for them to evaluate and discuss. Would it be possible to receive some samples of your materials in multiples of seven so that each class member can participate? You have been very helpful in the past in this endeavor, which I greatly appreciate.
I am Director of Music Ministries for Westminster Presbyterian in Nashville and have a Youth Choir of 25 7th-12 grades. The boys are a mix of changing and changed voices. At present I have all the "changing" voices (several cambiatas) singing tenor. If I choose music carefully, it's fine, but that is not always easy to find. I'd love to see any sacred music you have that fits such a group. They have sung your "Kyrie" by Bob Ashton and it's lovely.
