Chorus Choir (SATB) - Level 4 - Digital Download
SKU: A0.1894666
Composed by Gilbert Gabriel; Nick Laird-Clowes; Paul Geoffrey Spencer; Scott Rosser; Stephen Paul Spencer. Arranged by Tabitha Beaven. This edition: pdf. 21st Century, A Cappella, Comedy, Contemporary A Cappella, Pop. 6 pages. Tabitha Beaven #1453148. Published by Tabitha Beaven (A0.1894666).Dario G's Sunchyme from 1997 is heavily based on a sample from The Dream Academy's 1985 song, Life in a Northern Town and it's one of those songs that always makes me smile!
This arrangement is designed to be experimented with, either as a vocal warm up, or to create a quick-win fun filler song. Each section here can be used as a layered warm up - there are easy harmony wins with added challenge of body percussion (not that the rhythms compares to the sexy drum beat in the Dario G track). Or you can do as written.
If using as a warm up - start looping one part in a section (for 8 bars) and bring in the different parts to build up a lovely soundscape.
As an arranged song, you can do as written - keeping some parts for second repeats. A suggested approach has been included on the final page.
(Section C is a wonderful challenge - syncopated rhythm in the voice vs. quaver body percussion - great practice in keeping a tight rhythm together and figuring out when to breathe!)
If you choose to take on the additional challenge of Section B + C together, there's a total of 8 parts.
The arrangement is designed to be used as a foundation to explore from and the idea is that you CAN'T GO WRONG so long as you are having fun!
