arr. Brad Richmond
RELEASED: March 2024

A powerful march for treble choirs, this fresh arrangement was inspired by women’s activism during the first decade of the 20th century. “Bread and Roses” was a political slogan that appeared initially in a speech by Helen Todd and later became the title of a poem by James Oppenheim.

“The world is young today, forget the gods are old.” The composer has created a musical world for this unique text that is resilient, strong, and full of energy. A fine choice for advanced four-part treble choirs, with extended ranges and stacked harmonies in a highly repetitive gospel-style. The bold and brassy piano part makes this a fun concert closer!
