MAKE ME KNOW - PAVANE P1828
From the Christopher W. Peterson Choral Series, a compelling new piece by Kevin A. Memley. English poet Euan Tait provides a text that celebrates the relational benefits that emerge from the craft of choral singing – a most relevant and unique perspective. Premiered at the ACDA Western Regional in 2026, San Jose.
MOONLIGHT AND RAIN - PAVANE P1470
Kevin Memley composed both words and music of this work written for his 11th wedding anniversary. Truly in a romantic style, the appealing melody is caressed with wooing harmonies and the obbligato violin adds more enticement to the piece. For high school, college and community choirs.
THE NEW COLOSSUS - PAVANE P1565
Premiered at the ACDA Western Division conference and released as an SSAA selection, the cry for an SATB setting was immediate. The Emma Lazarus text is a powerful poem celebrating our Statue of Liberty and the freedoms and dreams that are uniquely American. The music is equally strong and stately, providing a patriotic anthem with musical and textual integrity. For high school, community and college choirs. Medium in difficulty.

O MAGNUM MYSTERIUM - PAVANE P1395
Selected for the Jonathan Talberg choral Series, Kevin Memley has produced a gorgeous new setting of this time-honored text. His “Ave Maria” was released last year and has quickly established Kevin as a new composer to watch. Premiered at the 2010 ACDA Western convention, rich, lush chords and delicate motifs will make this a favorite for singers and listeners for years to come.
This title also arranged for SSAA & Piano in digital download. Pavane Publishing P1679
O MY LUVE'S LIKE A RED, RED ROSE - WALTON WJMS1134 - JW PEPP
The well-known Robert Burns poem has been brought to new life in this gorgeous, passionate setting. The flowing tune builds to a dramatic, uplifting climax - proclaiming the depth of love - before settling into a quiet, intimate close. A beautifully crafted melody, solid part writing, and a delicate, accessible piano accompaniment make this a top choice for high school, university, and community choirs. Highly recommended!
O VOS OMNES - PAVANE P1528
A great composer knows when less is more. Kevin Memley's setting of this Latin text displays this characteristic well. Reminiscent of a Romantic era piece the piano accompaniment rolls in a steady 12/8 pattern. The primary melody is plaintive and beckoning and the piece builds steadily in intensity and strength. Great for high school, college and community groups for festival and concert. Easy to Medium.
ON MUSIC - PAVANE P1645
The text celebrates the essence of music itself. This piece has a sound that would make you think it has been a favorite for generations. Memley is known for his fine craftsmanship and captivating melodies and this piece falls right into line. Profound and magnificent best describe its character.
