Next Stop
Download audio practice tracks for Tracy Wong’s “Next Stop” for SSATB a cappella.
Includes full access for 1-50 singers. These tracks are sold in batches of 50, so please round up the number of singers in your group to the nearest multiple of 50. Example: 42 singers = Qty. of 50 in your cart.
Because of the cultural content of my music, I manage all aspects of the recording and production of learning tracks of my music, and I am delighted to have Graphite be the distributor of these learning tracks. I take pride in doing my best to make sure that these are representative of me and are “ethically-sourced”. This means that the audio recordings and learning tracks for my own music would be edited and/or recorded by choral musicians who speak the language(s) I set music to, and have the lived experience of the culture which I do my best to honour through my music. These musicians are paid for their time, experience, skill, and artistry. I also commit 10% of income earned from my choral works, learning resources, and workshops on Malaysian-themed choral/vocal/composition/music towards funding Malaysian artists and music educators I collaborate with on current and future artistic & educational initiatives.
All purchases will have a packet of audio tracks (the various part-dominant tracks, full mixed track, pronunciation guide).
About the tracks:
- These rehearsal tracks are recordings of my own voice, singing all vocal parts. I have designed them (with the help of my friend in Singapore, Cherie Chai) for the benefit of distant / isolated singing in your personal spaces, and to encourage independent learning. These audio tracks work best with earphones / headphones on.
- These tracks would provide the pronunciation, style, and tone that is appropriate for the performance of this piece.
- The tracks are professionally mixed so singers are ensured high quality audio recordings to support their learning!
Important licensing & purchasing terms: The purchase of this resource allows your choral organization to distribute it to your singers and staff for their own learning at any time, but not to be duplicated, edited in any way, and/or shared beyond the organization.
Thank you for supporting ethical consumption of self-published music!

Composer’s Notes
Commissioned by California Choral Directors Association for the 2026 All-State Honor Choirs (High School SATB), directed by Dr. Sandra Snow.
Next Stop is inspired by the planes, trains, subways, and cars that have taken me to many memorable choral events. The text features announcements and printed signs that one might encounter in those situations:
Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear.
Slow down.
Watch your step.
Mind the gap.
Doors closing…
Next stop…
These phrases are merged with the cardinal directions in the Malay language (with diction in the International Phonetic Alphabet):
Utara
[utara]
north
Selatan
[səlatan]
south
Timur
[timur]
east
Barat
[barad]
west
Some featured musical moments include train whistles, ticking clocks and crosswalks, and high speed cars zipping by.
Please refer to the accompanying audio guide for pronunciation of Malay text and sample of vocal percussion sounds that are in the music!
