Choral Choir,Choral (TTBB) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1354419 Composed by Traditional. Arranged by Stephen Smith. Celtic,Christmas,Classical,Holiday,Irish,Traditional. 7 pages. Stephen Smith #939138. Published by Stephen Smith (A0.1354419). This concert arrangement for male choir uses the broad and heartfelt melody that Robert Burns originally intended to be paired with his Auld Lang Syne lyric. From a gentle and pensive opening, the arrangement steadily builds -- as the poem extols the virtues of brotherhood, friendship, and faithfulness -- to a truly stirring conclusion. The piano part in this piano-choral score may be used as the sole accompaniment in performances of the work; or the piano may be replaced by a chamber ensemble of flute, clarinet, French horn, violin, cello, and contrabass. It is actually this chamber ensemble version of the piece -- or at least a MIDI approximation of it -- that is heard in the accompanying audio preview. Should you wish to perform the arrangement in this version, please email  the composer at smithstephen@shaw.ca to obtain a full score and parts.
