You’re a Song to Me by Markus DetterbeckMarkus Detterbeck’s sensitively composed pop ballad for choir is an expressive declarati-on of love in a-cappella style. A piece that charms and delights and quite rightly reaches its climax in the words: “How can I keep from singing this song?”

Jambo BwanaTeddy Kalanda Harrison, arr. by Markus DetterbeckThis rousing African pop song was composed by the Kenyan musician Teddy Lalanda Harrison who recorded the song in 1980 with his band “Them Mushrooms”. The song, written in the “Benga” tradition – dance music from East Africa - quickly became popular in Kenya and even made the Eu-ropean hit parades. Covered later by such well known mu-sicians as Boney M., this is a groovy, laid back song along the lines of “hakuna matata” (no problem) – now in a choral arrangement by Markus Detterbeck.

� SATB – HCCS - 7121 € 3,80

Jubilate – Praise the Lordby Markus DetterbeckBased on a call-response structure, Markus Detterbeck has developed a dialogue between soloist and choir which is cha-racterized by rhythmic drive. A dynamic mid-section provi-des a musical contrast before a return to the rhythmic motifs of the beginning progressively intensifi es the piece. Elements of Afro-American music are skilfully combined with a poly-phonically imitative phraseology. A powerful coda brings to a close this effective composition for religious services andconcerts.

� SATB and Solo – HI - C6261 € 2,80

Soon I Will be DoneTrad. USA, arr. by Markus DetterbeckEven gospel greats such as Mahalia Jackson included this message full of profound faith and trust in their repertoires. Markus Detterbeck has fashioned his groovy soul choral ar-rangement with haunting rhythmic and melodic patterns and so created a powerfully expressive choral piece that captiva-tes singers and audiences alike.


Shepherds, Runby Markus DetterbeckA new, rhythmically rousing choral hit for Christmastime by Markus Detterbeck. The powerful Gospel sounds, the lively call and response structures in the solo and choir as well as the “Gloria in excelsis Deo” calls interspersed throughout not only put the shepherds in motion, but that of the feet of the singers and audience, too.

� SATB – HCCS - 7065 € 2,80

Mah-nah-mah-naPiero Umiliani, arr. by Markus DetterbeckWith its snappy opening motif, the song Mah-na-mah-na from the ”Muppet Show“ became a highly successful hit. In this arrangement, Markus Detterbeck has taken up the mu-sical comic effect and expanded the piece by punchy use of motifs from well-known songs.

Down by the Salley GardensHerbert Hughes, arr. by Markus DetterbeckThis song numbers among the most popular of Irish folk songs, and its lyrics are derived from the great Irish poet Wil-liam Butler Yeats. Markus Detterbeck has composed a moving arrangement of the piece, skilfully incorporating the typical Irish sounds of the bagpipe drone. It can be sung a cappella or with accompaniment.
