By The Beatles. By John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Arranged by Shelly Davis. This edition: pdf, streaming. 20th Century, Pop, Rock, Ska. 9 pages. Shelly Davis #1145087. Published by Shelly Davis (A0.1573219).According to beatlesbible.com, "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" is one of many phrases Paul McCartney heard his Nigerian friend, Jimmy Scott use. The title was said to be Urhobo for ‘Life goes on’, but was actually just a family phrase. No matter the original of the phrase, you and your music makers will want this catchy tune to go on and on!
Older elementary students will have a blast playing this classic Beatles tune on their favorite percussion instrument, Boomwhackers.
Arranged in three parts: Melody, Harmony, and Bass, this song is sure to be a favorite among your students and an audience pleaser at your concert.
Each part is written within the C4-C5 octave range (Middle C to Treble C on the Treble Staff). Basic rhythm symbols are used for notation which can be adapted by ear to more closely match the original rhythms.
