Published by Alex Rodrigues (A0.1492620). The Last Rose of Summer is a work deeply rooted in Irish culture, originally penned as a poem by the renowned poet and composer Thomas Moore in 1805. Moore, regarded as Ireland’s national poet, was inspired by an 'Old Blush' rose while staying at Jenkinstown Castle in County Kilkenny, Ireland. The poem was published as part of his Irish Melodies collection between 1807 and 1834, and later set to music by fellow Irishman John Stevenson. The song gained widespread popularity and was incorporated into the opera Martha by the German composer Friedrich von Flotow, which premiered in 1847 in Vienna.This sheet music has been adapted for voice and piano, preserving the original melody true to the composition by Moore and Stevenson. The piano arrangement has been simplified to provide an accessible experience for music teachers who, even without extensive piano skills, wish to accompany their students. This arrangement maintains the melodic and emotional essence of the piece, offering a version that honors its traditional nuances while making it approachable for beginner to intermediate musicians.The Last Rose of Summer captures the essence of melancholy and the passage of time—universal themes reflected in the farewell to the last vestige of a vibrant summer. The melody, paired with Moore’s poetry, evokes a profound sense of loss and longing, with the solitary rose serving as a metaphor for the fleeting nature of life and the seasons. The simplicity and beauty of this piece have made it a classic, both in literature and music, perpetuating Irish tradition and touching the hearts of listeners worldwide.

Made famous by Martha and the Vandellas, the song also took on a separate meaning outside of the charts when it became a civil rights anthem and has endured as a popular song for its catchy melody and message. This punchy arrangement is written for a cappella SATB and encourages good breath control, energised performance, and sustained lines. The popular melody is shared across parts, giving each voice line an opportunity to utilise a cappella accompaniment skills as well as a moment to deliver the catchy tune itself. This arrangement is ideal for high school choirs, chamber choirs, or a cappella groups interested in exploring a song which is both fun to perform and great to listen to as an audience member. The song works equally well as a bold opener, encore or as part of a Motown set.Arranged by Greg Link, a London-based professional singer, arranger and workshop leaderDuration: 1:20
