This book includes 12 songs, from Easy to Fairly challenging. The first one was arranged 20 years ago, and Candy has been drawn to arranging beautiful songs from Ireland ever since. All these arrangements have proved their value, having been sung and loved by many choirs. Several songs have become singers’ favourites.
Candy’s philosophy as an arranger of songs for choirs, is that ALL the parts must contain something of interest. As with everything else, one can take on the challenge of democracy. The arrangement must enhance and express the original song, must be musical and have quality, and also be fun to sing for the singers.
There are MP3 recordings of all the song parts in this book included with purchase. See below for some examples:
