New Arrangement – Out of the Darkness

Today’s New for 2023 Featured Arrangement is Out of the Darkness from Everybody’s Talking About Jamie.

This SATB chart was written as a transition number with a small group performing the first half to facilitate a costume change, but, the entire thing could be performed by the full ensemble. There is an extended bass clef solo to really feature a stellar soloist and opportunities for ad libbing over the a cappella chorus at the end. This chart was originally written for the Choraleers from Neosho High School in Missouri as part of their Secret Garden set.

The track features Brian McCallister & Ines Cring on vocals.

New Arrangement – Ghost

Today’s New and Never Performed release is Ghost by Justin Bieber.

This SATB ballad is designed to be a showcase for your groups vocal abilities. The chart begins with a dramatic vocal moment before the melody of the song picks up in the intro through the use of a trumpet/flugel solo. From there a treble solo takes the lead, eventually backed by the choir in the first chorus. The ensemble takes over in the 2nd verse which leads into an a cappella chorus full of polyphony. This chorus builds into a dramatic a cappella key change moment leading in to the final big chorus. The solo then takes the lead in the outro, again backed by the choir to end the ballad on a prime unison. This arrangement is new and has never been performed, your choir could be the first!

The track features Ines Cring & Brian McCallister on vocals.
