Review: Coldplay's biggest hit to date "Viva La Vida", this pop juggernaut manages to marry sweeping melodies with repetitive textures reminiscent of Steve Reich of Phillip Glass-esque minimalism. The rich overlapping vocal lines split into as many as nine different parts at times (in addition to the Tenor solo), but the repeating patterns keep it from being challenging.

The solo is perfect for soprano or alto, and although the end result is full and powerful, this arrangement is surprisingly easy to learn and sing. "I'm Yours" was one of the biggest pop songs of 2008, this arrangement features a tenor solo supported by a six part vocal-instrumental texture, weaving together in a light reggae feel that supports the original's sweet harmonies.

The setting is in the contemporary collegiate a cappella style, featuring simple lines layered into a complex, rich interwoven texture, supporting a gorgeous tenor solo.

Review: Thie Olivia Newton-John hit from the '70s "Let Me Be There" translates perfectly as a gospel-edged pop piece for today's choirs. There's a little hint of Elvis, too. Well-crafted choral writing combines with rhythmic drive to make your group come alive. There's a brief hand clapping a cappella section as the piece builds toward the big finish. "Build Me Up Buttercup" - Think collegiate-style a cappella with a street corner, doo-wop twist! Great individual vocal lines layer to make this a full-sounding choral from start to finish. An excellent change of pace in any concert. Scat your way to success with this inventive vocal setting of the '70s favorite "Pick Up the Pieces", a soul classic by the Average White Band. "Your Smiling Face" - A show stopper, for sure! Arranged in a collegiate, street-corner a cappella-style, with a featured Tenor solo. A fantastic change of pace. Considered to be their farewell single, the 1983 ABBA hit "Thank You For The Music" gently grooves in this contemporary a cappella setting from Kirby Shaw. A great choice for smaller ensembles or concert groups. "Without a song or a dance, what are we?"

Songlist: Build Me Up, Buttercup, Pick Up the Pieces, Let Me Be There, Your Smiling Face, Thank You For The Music

Review: Have some fun with your male voices with these clever and humorous arrangements! "Manly Men's Chorus Extravaganza" is a light-hearted choice for men's choir, the "extravaganza" pokes gentle fun at the male chorus singing tradition. Echoing themes well-known to most men's choirs, this is a singer's song. Moderately easy. From the Real Group's Anders Edenroth "The Modern Man" is great fun for choirs and their audiences. It's a 'tongue-in-cheek' piece on the meaning of being 'a modern man.' Fine selection for festival and concert. Written expressly for the three men of Swedish vocal jazz phenomenon The Real Group. Great entertainment!

Review: Paul Simon is certainly one of the greatest songwriters of the modern popular song and here are some classics that are sure to please. "Baby Driver" - Sheer, unbridled fun! For college or adult jazz chorus, this arrangement as sung by the New York Voices is a bit tricky, but well worth the effort. It features incredible harmony and rhythm and some a cappella sections, but the purpose of this piece is not to get technical-just to have fun! Four-part scat singing frames the piece on either end, while your baritone soloist goes to town (with great choral support) on each verse. Baby Driver, extracted from the New York Voices Songs of Paul Simon CD, is a toe-tappin', hand-clappin' jazz party. Invite everyone you know! "Bridge Over Troubled Water" - The true beauty of the powerful lyrics in this Simon & Garfunkel hit from 1970 comes shining through in this accessible and well-crafted a cappella setting. From the simple and intimate opening to the full-voiced conclusion, your singers and audiences will enjoy an emotional concert experience! "The Sound of Silence" - The excitement for a brand new Pentatonix arrangement of a beloved pop or rock tune has become something of an achievement in an of itself. This time, Simon & Garfunkel's chart topper from '65 gets a fully vocal musical tribute. "Old Friends" - The New York Voices hit a home run with their beautiful and poignant rendition of this song. Fred Sturm has taken that arrangement and made it appropriate for concert choir.

Review: "April Come She Will" - The King's Singers setting of the famous Simon and Garfunkel song explores the seasons through a gentle vocal tapestry of rhythm and rich harmony with a smooth lead floating above it all. "Bridge Over Troubled Water" - The phenomenal Simon & Garfunkel #1 hit from 1970 in a powerful a cappella setting! From the wistful opening phrases, this iconic song builds to a full-voiced forte, alternating between rich homophonic choral textures and solo melodies with vocal accompaniment sections, before its quiet and gentle closing tones. "Mrs. Robinson" - Hailed as one of the most underrated guitar players on the planet, Paul Simon and his writing/singing partner Art Garfunkel were tasked with creating the soundtrack to 1967's coming-of-age film The Graduate. Vocal percussion, sensitive guitar licks, and the duo's signature harmony all coalesce in this stunning a cappella arrangement from Philip Lawson!

Review: "Bridge Over Troubled Water" - The incredibly talented Mark Hayes breathes new life into this inspirational favorite. Beginning with a cool, almost tribal, percussive groove, new harmonies sweep in and out of this outstanding arrangement that only he could have created.

With lyrics that express loneliness and longing for home and well-loved and familiar harmonies, choirs will enjoy recreating the sound of an earlier era. "At the Zoo" - In the Choral Explorations jazz series for developing choirs, this whimsical song from Simon & Garfunkel is a perfect introduction to style, technique and blend.

This time, Simon & Garfunkel's chart topper from '65 gets a fully vocal musical tribute.
