Carl Fischer has a proud reputation for publish-
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.
