We sang his "The Road Home" (mostly from memory) at our choir rehearsal last night. This is NOT us singing, but if anyone doesn't know this lovely piece, here is a link:

Stephen Paulus was a great composer of choral music. He will be sorely missed. Thanks for posting, Vaarky. I've passed the word to my acquaintances and to MusicaSacra.
