Thanks for the plug, Ang!

Ashreinu is indeed available as sheet music, fully notated in 5 parts;
contact me directly if interested.  Our very own Wendy Goldberg (Hi, Wendy!)
included Ashreinu in her recent Twin Cities Jewish Gospel Choir's first
choral workshop, so I'm sure she'd be happy to speak to how the piece worked
out with her group.  (She can be contacted at wendy(dot)goldberg (at) 
prodigy(dot)net(dot))

beautiful rendition of "Ashreinu" composed by Rick Calvert.  It would be so
much fun to sing in a choir, as it has a lot of spirit and energy.  I think
that people of all backgrounds would really enjoy learning it and performing
it.  There's not an overwhelming amount of Hebrew, and the English applies
to any faith.  The catch -- I'm not sure whether or not Rick has this song
notated in a choral arrangement.  You might try contacting him at
