Summertime (from the musical Porgy and Bess) by George Gershwin (1898-1937) and Dorothy Heyward. Arranged by Mark Hayes. Choir Secular. SATB choir. Choral Octavo; Masterworks. Pop Choral. 20th Century; Broadway; Masterwork Arrangement. Choral Octavo. 12 pages. Published by Alfred Music Publishing (AP.28776).
This classic American song from Porgy and Bess® deserves only the finest choral treatment, and Mark Hayes has certainly given it that, with a rich, lush setting. The piano accompaniment carries the voices on a dramatic journey appropriate to the nature of the piece. A song that every singer should know and will love.

one great piece
I chose this as the finale of my choir's summer concert. It is a fine piece, but not for the faint-of-heart. It is rhythmically complicated, and requires some sophisticated knowledge on the part of your choir members. Otherwise, it is well worth it!
