By Kirk Young. Composed by E. B. Ome. Arranged by Kirk Young. This edition: pdf. A Cappella, Barbershop, Folk. 7 pages. Kirk J. Young #1450232. Published by Kirk J. Young (A0.1891693).

A deeply nostalgic TTBB arrangement of O’er The Hills of Dear Old Maine, lovingly reimagined for modern men’s ensembles while preserving the heart and spirit of this historic Maine song. Rich with longing, homesickness, and pride of place, this arrangement feels like a musical postcard from another era — one filled with moonlit hills, autumn leaves, rustic mills, and the ache of remembering home.

Written for singers who appreciate storytelling and resonance over gimmicks, the chart unfolds with warm, flowing harmony and classic barbershop-inspired voice leading. The opening verse immediately establishes the emotional landscape: a traveler far from home remembering “the dear old State and home” and the loved ones left behind (pages 1–2). From there, the arrangement gradually expands into broad, cinematic choruses that feel both intimate and anthem-like.

What makes this arrangement unique is its balance of authenticity and musical sophistication. Rather than treating the song as a novelty relic, the arrangement embraces its emotional sincerity. The repeated “When the silv’ry moon is shining / O’er the hills of dear old Maine” refrain becomes larger and more emotionally charged each time it returns, creating a powerful arc that builds naturally toward the soaring final pages. The closing tenor-led melody and sustained harmonic resolution give the piece a timeless, almost folk-hymn quality.

The harmony is warm, singable, and idiomatic for male voices, making the piece accessible while still rewarding ensembles with strong tuning, phrasing, and blend.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
