By Bastille. By Dan Smith. Arranged by Joseph Hollings. This edition: pdf, streaming. Contemporary, Contest, Festival, Pop, Show Choir. 14 pages. Joseph Hollings Publishing #1450185. Published by Joseph Hollings Publishing (A0.1891625).Pompeii (Bastille) – SAB Choir + Piano
Arranged by Joseph Hollings
Key: F major | Tempo: ♩ = 128 | Duration: 3:30 | Pages: 14 | Level: Intermediate
If you need a reliable energy piece that works for developing ensembles, this SAB (3-part mixed) + piano arrangement of Bastille’s “Pompeii” is built to fill that slot. It’s an especially strong choice as:
- a concert opener (immediate hook and momentum)
- a second-half kick-off or pops feature (high energy without extreme ranges)
- a festival-ready up-tempo selection that keeps students engaged
- a fun show choir addition that still reads clearly as choral repertoire
Transposed to F major with comfortable ranges, the arrangement retains the drive of the original while staying practical for rehearsal. The vocal writing keeps all parts active and interesting, with much of the original’s rhythmic backing and hook material brought into the choir.
Short featured phrases add textural contrast (a brief alto–baritone duet line, followed by a soprano line), with the full ensemble continuing underneath so the energy never drops. Optional foot stomps and two hand-clap phrases are notated and assigned to specific parts to add percussive lift.
The piano accompaniment is supportive but independent – best for a teacher, accompanist, or capable student pianist.
Voicing & ranges
- Soprano: C4 – D5
- Alto: A3 – B♭4
- Baritone: B♭2 – D4 (most sits C3 – C4)
A strong fit for pops concerts, festival sets, and an energetic closer that students enjoy singing and audiences immediately recognize.
