    The current issue of The American Organist has this article, "Micro-works by Macro-Composers: Music of the Greats for Small Church Choirs" by David Puderbaugh. (The American Organist, vol. 43, no. 2, February 2009). There are anthems or motets recommended for each season with a good summary of instrumentation, etc. Useful for those tired of trying to guess if something is any good from an unannotated choral catalog. And several can be found on CPDL.

    So pick the journal back out of the trash and give it a look. Not a member? Head to the library.

    Yes, this is a very good article. I have collected links to all of the choral pieces, including those on CPDL, into one location:
