Composed by Hughie Charles and Ross Parker. Arranged by Rob Bushnell. Opera. 1 pages. Rob Bushnell #5740045. Published by Rob Bushnell (A0.752399)."We'll Meet Again" was written in 1939 by Ross Parker and Hughie Charles, and made famous by singer Dame Vera Lynn. The song is one of the most famous of the Second World War era. It later gave its name to the 1943 musical film We'll Meet Again, where Vera Lynn played the lead role.
During the Cold War, Lynn's recording of the song was included in the package of music and programmes held in 20 underground radio stations of the BBC's Wartime Broadcasting Service (WTBS), designed to provide public information and morale-boosting broadcasts for 100 days after a nuclear attack.
In 2005, Vera Lynn sang the song in London on the 60th Anniversary of VE Day in 2005, and, in 2020, a duet with Katherine Jenkins reached number 72 on the UK Singles Chart.
Arranged during the 2019/2020 Coronavirus Pandemic to commemorate/celebrate the 75th anniversary of VE Day, it is designed for two treble-clef instruments in the same key. This version is in B-flat major (written pitch) – part 1 has a written range from E4 to F5 and part 2 has a written range from B3 to C5. (For other parts/versions, see my other "We’ll Meet Again" titles.) A recording of the original song can be found here on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsM_VmN6ytk.
