About this arrangement

Choral Choir (SATB divisi) - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.856239 Composed by Traditional. Arranged by Liz Garnett. Contemporary. Octavo. 5 pages. Liz Garnett #5299751. Published by Liz Garnett (A0.856239). This setting of the traditional Scottish song of farewell is designed as an 8-part arrangement that male and female quartets or choruses can sing together to finish a joint performance, as well as two separate 4-part arrangements for the respective groups to use when they're not sharing the stage. It was conceived to address the 'cost-per-wear' problem of special occasion pieces that only get performed occasionally but still need rehearsing to the same standard as the rest of the set. The melody is taken for the most part by the male basses and female leads, then handed off to female basses and male leads for the 3rd phrase of each verse. The first verse is homophonic, while the second explores a variety of melody+accompaniment textures before restoring the harmonic texture to introduce a tag that blossoms out from unison.It is notated for combined men's and women's barbershop ensembles (i.e. using treble, bass alta, treble bassa and bass clefs).The two single-sex versions are also available to purchase separately.Vocal Ranges:Female Tenor: E flat 4 - E flat 5Female Lead: B flat 3 - C5Female Bari: B flat 3 - C5 Female Bass: E flat 3 - G4Male Tenor: D4 - B flat 4Male Lead: B flat 2 - E flat 4Male Bari: G3 - E flat 4Male Bass: F2 - C4www.HelpingYouHarmonise.com This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
