Summary of This Score
Offered in the Discovery Series edition for youth choirs, this choral score is based on a major pop standard from the 60s to establish essential chorister habits. The duration of about 3 min 20 makes it an effective choice to work on a specific objective at each rehearsal, while maintaining a complete and rewarding musical form in concert.
Thanks to the 2-Part and 3-Part Mixed versions, you can create balanced sections even with a heterogeneous ensemble: ideal for a school choir, a youth choir in a conservatory, or an amateur group in a development phase. The Simon and Garfunkel repertoire offers rich musical material to address line leading, rhythmic cohesion, shared breathing, and text expression, without overloading the singers. The VoiceTrax CD option (sold separately) provides a stable and motivating sound framework, useful for consolidating ensemble coordination, securing entrances, and preparing a more confident stage performance.
