Choral Choir (5-Part) - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1265017 Composed by David Jon Gilmour, George Roger Waters, and Richard William Wright. Arranged by Lucas Rei Ramos. 20th Century,A Cappella,Rock. Octavo. 6 pages. Lucas Rei Ramos #857855. Published by Lucas Rei Ramos (A0.1265017). Arrangement for SSATB of this classic from Pink Floyd, ideal for choirs who want to add some classic rock to their repertoire.I wanted to convey the intimate and, at the same time, intense mood of the original tune. Its dynamic contrast and opposition between counterpoint and homophonic sections serve this purpose. It features several contrapuntal sections at the beginning (part II), end (parts VIII and IX) and interlude (part IV), aimed to imitate the instrumental performance. It’s not a challenging arrangement, but should some of these parts be complicated for the choir, they can be skipped safely.This arrangement only comprises lyrics from part IV, excluding part VII for the sake of brevity and simplicity.Commissioned by Coro da Rá, a choir specialized in jazz and Brazilian music. I had a special relationship with the music of Pink Floyd in my youth, so I made this arrangement with enthusiasm. I’d love to have it sung by other choirs around the world and hope you enjoy it as well.
