This is an accompanied SSAA arrangement of the up-beat Act 1 finale Bright New Day from the 1983 musical Blood Brothers.
This arrangement has a short intro based on the transition in the original musical and then contains all 6 versus of the original song. The melody alternates between the sopranos and altos and there is some call and response in the later versus. The highest note in the soprano 1 part is top Ab5 and lowest note in alto 2 part is F3.
Blood Brothers tells the nature versus nurture story of twin brothers separated at birth in 1960's Liverpool and, with the brothers growing up at opposite ends of the social spectrum. Bright New Day is about one of the brothers and his mother moving from the condemned inner-city slums of Liverpool to a new council house in the nearby town of Skelmersdale during the early 1970's, before he meets his brother by chance again.
