for SATB and children's choir/SSATB unaccompanied Introduced by the children's choir, Quartel's simple and uplifting melody repeats throughout the piece, beautifully coloured by the surrounding parts. The voices offer joyful praise and the rich harmonies build up to a warm and rousing finish. The children's part may also be sung by a congregation or divided soprano part.

for SATB unaccompanied The Parting Glass is a traditional Scottish song, often sung as a farewell at the end of a get-together. Sarah Quartel's arrangement features close harmonies, idiomatic Scotch snap rhythms, and effective interjectory moments in what is a largely homophonic setting. The arrangement was made for the composer's friend Matt Jones, who served with the Canadian Military in Afghanistan in 2010-11; his deployment and eventual safe return inspired the setting of the piece. With its valedictory message, The Parting Glass would make a fitting end to a performance, perhaps as an encore item.

for SATB and piano Quartel's arrangement of this well-known Irish carol is distinctly refreshing, characterized in part by its charming and sparkling piano part. The middle section offers an opportunity for both the choir and pianist to shine individually, and explores further the beautiful modal harmonies of the original melody.

Also available in a version for alto solo and SSATB unaccompanied.

for SSAA and piano Refuge sets a powerful Sara Teasdale poem by the same name, which perfectly captures the healing power of singing: 'For with my singing I can make a refuge for my spirit's sake, A house of shining words, to be my fragile immortality'.
