New Beginnings in a New City
We’ve moved to Cincinnati to serve at Faith Church in Milford, Ohio! I know, I know, my very last post was announcing something new. Well, here we are again…announcing something else new: a little over a year ago we relocated to suburban Cincinnati, where I’m serving as the music & AV associate at Faith Church.Continue reading “New Beginnings in a New City”
What I’ve Been Up To
Announcing Content for Humans, my newest business venture It’s been a little quiet on this site, and that’s because I’ve been busy launching something new! Meet Content for Humans: For years, I’ve been writing content for clients across a range of industries. It started as a side job I wanted to keep secret—I’m a publishedContinue reading “What I’ve Been Up To”
Wexford Carol Now Available
Choristers Guild has released my setting of Wexford Carol, available for Christmas 2021! This careful, sensitive setting is scored for SATB choir, piano, and flute. I dedicated this piece to Warren Cook and Rivertree Singers, an exceptional choral ensemble I sang with for many years and that premiered this composition several years back. A treble-voiceContinue reading “Wexford Carol Now Available”
New Choral Titles and Recordings
Over the past year and a half, I’ve contributed some new compositions and arrangements that have been published and recorded by The Wilds. While I’m not actively writing much music during this season of life, I’m glad that these pieces have found a publishing home and have enhanced the recordings listed below. Choral Anthems TheContinue reading “New Choral Titles and Recordings”
Reflections on Sing! 2019
I’ve just returned home from Sing! 2019 in Nashville. It was a great conference, with plenty of reconnecting with old friends as well as making connections with new ones. I spent a fair bit of time at the Beckenhorst Press booth, where I met dozens of choir directors and members—some of whom may be visitingContinue reading “Reflections on Sing! 2019”
Available Now: Wexford Carol
It’s nearly Christmas again! Just 10 months ago Rivertree Singers graciously premiered my new setting of Wexford Carol. I’m grateful to a number of choral conductors and church musicians who have purchased the score from me directly for use this Christmas season. If you’d like to do the same, please contact me. I’m currently sellingContinue reading “Available Now: Wexford Carol”
Composing Milestones!
A big thank you to all those who support Hoelscher Music by purchasing and using my compositions and arrangements in worship services and concerts! Still, Still, Still is my best-selling anthem, and it crossed the 20,000-copies-sold mark in 2016. Total lifetime sales of all anthems hit 70,000 this year, too. These numbers might be small potatoesContinue reading “Composing Milestones!”
Musical Year in Review
I know, I’m about 10 days too late for this sort of post, but it’s been a relatively quiet year in this space, and I thought I’d let you know what I’ve been up to. 2016 was an incredibly exciting year, even if it wasn’t quite as compositionally productive. January–March In the first 3 months ofContinue reading “Musical Year in Review”
Housekeeping
I’ve moved my website to my own domain, HoelscherMusic.com. For the handful of folks who have this site bookmarked (aka “my mom”), please update accordingly. The old URL (hoelschermusic.wordpress.com) will redirect to the new for some time. I’ll post again in the near future about some recent vocal recording opportunities and the upcoming Rivertree Singers &Continue reading “Housekeeping”
