About this arrangement

Organ - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.772921 By The Beatles. By John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Arranged by Paul Ayres. Rock. Score. 4 pages. Paul Ayres #6245185. Published by Paul Ayres (A0.772921). From the liner notes to Paul Ayres's CD Rainbow Toccata: "A favourite trick of organists, when reharmonising last verses of hymns, is to introduce a chromatic bass line. Accompanying the opening melody of Michelle with a chromatic descending scale seems to be almost too obvious (it’s not quite how the Beatles harmonise the tune). I wondered how far it might be possible to continue in this same vein, in strict four-part counterpoint. The result is a rich, intense harmonic sound-world reminiscent of Franck, Fauré and Vierne. As Michelle herself, in the song, is French (we assume: but perhaps she’s from Luton and her paramour is speaking in French merely in order to… well, as a pop hit fourteen years later would say, "voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?"), this nod in the direction of les grandes orgues de Paris seems suitable, and registration has been chosen accordingly."
