Choral Choir,Choral (TTBB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1378737 By Simple Plan. By Charles Comeau, Emanuel Kiriakou, and Pierre Bouvier. Arranged by Kathleen McGuire. 21st Century,Pop,Punk,Rock. 12 pages. Kathleen McGuire #963445. Published by Kathleen McGuire (A0.1378737). This arrangement for men's choir (TTBB) was commissioned by the Buffalo Gay Men's Chorus in dedicated to a devoted member whom they lost far too soon. The ebb and flow of dynamics, constrasts of legato and marcato, a dramatic piano accompaniment, plus some unresolved vocal harmonies, allow for a series of emotions to be painted such as those experienced in the grief cycle. From Canadian band Simple Plan, ‘Gone Too Soon’ was first released in 2011. The inspiration for the song was the tragic loss of so many talented artists, actors and musicians to drug overdoses or suicide. On the Simple Plan website, drummer Chuck Corneau explained: “We thought it was so sad to see so much talent being wasted. Also there were people in our family and some great friends we lost. So the song is a combination of all that. Yes the song is about missing someone who is gone�. Singer Pierre Bouvier added: “Hopefully this song can help people that are going through similar situations where they feel like someone in their family or one of their friends has gone too soon.�.

Choral Choir (TTBB) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.865875 By Kimberley Locke. By Jerry Herman. Arranged by Charles Beale. Disney. Octavo. 9 pages. Charliebmusic #5313453. Published by charliebmusic (A0.865875). We Need a Little Christmas’ comes from the 1966 Jerry Herman musical ‘Mame’, and was sung by Angela Lansbury on Broadway. Usually an upbeat fast showtune, this surprising arrangement treats the song as a ballad. It focuses on the more wistful aspects of the lyric, about how after a year we have grown a little older, wise and (perhaps!) leaner. It is slow, legato, largely quiet and chorally contrapuntal in places. To give your show an arc, think about about using the other, contrasting arrangement of this song by Charlie, which is the more conventional upbeat show-2 finale. He originally wrote both for one Holiday program, and put one at the beginning and the other at the end.

Donald A Mills #4351149. Published by Donald A Mills (A0.928974). In My Room, by The Beach Boys.  This gentle song may be sung as a prayer, with tenderness. Your audiences will love the melody and harmonies. This arrangement by Donald A. Mills is for barbershop as a quartet or chorus. It is TTBB (TLBB) a cappella, sung softly, sweetly, legato, singing the four dotted quarter notes as a 3/4 time. The Beach Boys have mentioned that they wrote In My Room in 12/8 time because they had tired of the 3/4 time many songs of the day were written in. From Wikipedia, Gary Usher explained that 'In My Room found us taking our craft a little more seriously. Brian and I came back to the house one night after playing 'over-the-line' (a baseball game). I played bass and Brian was on organ. The song was written in an hour... Brian's melody all the way. The sensitivity... the concept meant a lot to him. When we finished, it was late, after our midnight curfew. In fact, Murry [the Wilson brothers' father] came in a couple of times and wanted me to leave. Anyway, we got Audree [the Wilson brothers' mother], who was putting her hair up before bed, and we played it for her. She said, 'That's the most beautiful song you've ever written.' Murry said, 'Not bad, Usher, not bad,' which was the nicest thing he ever said to me. Gary Usher (who co-wrote the lyrics with Brian Wilson) further describes that Brian was always saying that his room was his whole world. Brian seconds this opinion: I had a room, and I thought of it as my kingdom. And I wrote that song, very definitely, that you're not afraid when you're in your room. It's absolutely true. In 1990, Brian wrote, I also enjoyed producing 'In My Room'. There is a story behind this song. When Dennis, Carl and I lived in Hawthorne as kids, we all slept in the same room. One night I sang the song 'Ivory Tower' to them and they liked it. Then a couple of weeks later, I proceeded to teach them both how to sing the harmony parts to it. It took them a little while, but they finally learned it. We then sang this song night after night. It brought peace to us. When we recorded 'In My Room', there was just Dennis, Carl and me on the first verse...and we sounded just like we did in our bedroom all those nights. This story has more meaning than ever since Dennis' death.
