I am excited to share that I completed a new band work, titled Bolt. Bolt was written for medium-level band, which contains lots of syncopations and heavy accepts. There is only one theme that all the music is derived from. This work is meant to be fun for the musicians and electrifying for the audience. I’m going to see if there’s any publisher interest before I sell this on my own. Should be available later this year.

This new work for SATB choir and piano uses a anonymous text from a traditional hymn. The music here is brand new and has no reference to the original tune. This work only uses 4-part writing, so there is no divisi between each voice. The ranges are very accessible for most choirs whether sacred or concert. Most importantly though, I hope this work will uplift and inspire both the musicians and the audience — the text is certainly powerful.

This title is not yet available for purchase, as I want to first see if there’s publisher interest. However, it will be available soon.

I’m well aware that most of the JW Pepper links to my scores, are not working. Pepper made an update recently and most of the links on my site no longer take you to the correct items. All music can still be found by using the search feature of Pepper’s site. However, I’m in the process of fixing all of the links this week and appreciate your patience. – Britt

I recently finished an SATB version of my choral work, Ask Me. The original version was only for SSAA and piano, written many years ago. However, it was one of my very early choral works. The piano accompaniment was written more like how I would write for instrumentalists. In other words, it did not really support the choir in a way that makes it easy for the singers to find their pitches. Because of this, I revised the entire piano accompaniment for both the original SSAA version, and this brand new SATB arrangement. I’m very excited to share both of these final versions to choirs looking for a lighter, yet powerful secular work.
