De la musique contemporaine divertissante,,,est-ce possible, me direz-vous ? Mais oui,,,en voici un pur exemple, Le traité médical du XVIIIème qui sert de livret à l'Opéra thérapeutique, semble avoir été écrit par l'un de nos surréalistes, Derrière tous ces rires, une certaine cruauté cependant, un absurde grinçant, qui peut, au détour de certaines phrases, donner froid dans le dos,,, Isabelle Aboulker est une de nos compositrice actuelles les plus indépendantes, inclassables ! Elle ne peut se raccrocher à aucune école, aucun style, Sa musique est légère, drôle, 'facile' comme on dit !

Singin' In The Rain was already a classic before it featured in the famous 1952 Gene Kelly film musical - Arthur Freed and Nacio Herb Brown wrote it in the 1920s when many artists recorded it, but more notably Cliff Edwards enjoyed success from his recording in 1929. Now forever associated with Kelly's puddle-splashing routine and more recently reprised in stage adaptations, Singin' In The Rain remains an all-time favourite. Here it has been arranged by Craig McLeish for upper voice SSA choir with piano accompaniment. / Choeur SSA Et Piano

Over the Rainbow is a standard that has become forever associated with its most famous interpreter, Judy Garland. Her troubled adult years only added poignancy to her guileless interpretation of the song, preserved on celluloid in The Wizard of Oz when she was seventeen. The song would also do something similar for Eva Cassidy whose 1992 version brought her posthumous fame almost a decade later. Arranged beautifully by Christopher Hussey for SAB choir with Piano accompaniment, this anthem of hope has not lost its bitter-sweet yearning. / Choeur Mixte (SAB) Et Piano

The Long And Winding Road is one of the most popular ballads of The Beatles' late-period. A melancholic song written by Paul McCartney and inspired by the growing tensions within the group, it's a dramatic track that creates a sense of emotional drama by modulating between minor and major keys. This new choral arrangement for SSA choir with piano accompaniment by Simon Foxley is an intriguing proposition for ensembles with its non-standard song structure that plays around with the emphasis of its main melodic theme. / Choeur SSA Et Piano

Par KANDER JOHN / BEALE CHARLES (Arr.). John Kander and Fred Ebb created a number of 20th-century show classics, including Cabaret and Kiss of the Spider woman, but Chicago is perhaps their greatest and best-loved show of them all. On the surface And All That Jazz is a celebration of bohemian excess of every conceivable kind. Sing the fantastic, showstopping melody with great energy, have a ball and relish the rich word painting. There is an underlying dark side, however, which shows itself at the end when Roxie murders her unfaithful husband in anger. Vibrato is appropriate and a clear, well-tuned, brash sound that carries a mile is more important than a refined, classically rounded tone here. Make sure the words are exceptionally clear and above all, prioritise telling the story. This piece is part of the Faber Choral Singles series, offering a selection of beautifully crafted arrangements in a diversity of musical styles. From Broadway, pop and folk to spirituals, gospel and original works, the series is arranged for 3 part choirs (soprano, alto and a combined male-voice part) providing flexibility for any choir. Complete with straight-forward piano accompaniments supporting the vocal lines, the Faber Choral Singles series guarantees the perfect repertoire for every occasion – so get exploring and get singing! / Choral Music / Répertoire / Voix Mixtes
