By Bob Dylan. By Bob Dylan. Arranged by Alexander Koller. A Cappella,Pop. Octavo. 5 pages. Alexander Koller #6905687. Published by Alexander Koller (A0.1035850).This is a four-part a cappella arrangement in the barbershop style (for male voices). The arrangement follows the Adele version more closely than the Bob Dylan version, but leaves out some of her stylizations. It should be fine for barbershop contests.
There are already several barbershop arrangements of the song. My goal was to write one that is accessible for beginning barbershoppers, but still has some fun moments and a musical development that supports the story. I have tried to maintain the quiet and introspective mood of the original, while still giving you the opportunity for some musical contrasts.
The back half (which you can't see in the preview) has the third verse as a lead solo and the fourth verse as a lead-tenor duet, with the other parts singing doo-doo accompaniment. The second bridge ("the storms are raging") has a higher tessitura and musical intensity than the first one.
The arrangement is for male voices. It should also work for a mixed quartet with a male bass. If you want to sing it with four high voices, please get in touch and I'll see if I can make it more accessible to you.
If you choose to sing this arrangement, I would love to hear about your experiences at akoller@gmail.com; your feedback will make me a better arranger.
