By The Beatles. By John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Arranged by Suzy Lobaugh & the LABBS Music Category. 20th Century,A Cappella,Barbershop. Octavo. 6 pages. LABBS - Ladies Association of British Barbershop Singers #778780. Published by LABBS - Ladies Association of British Barbershop Singers (A0.1178814).This song is arranged in 4 part close harmony, tranposed for men's (or mixed) voicings, in the barbershop style (internal melody). The arrangement is based on one by Suzy Lobaugh (also available on SMP) and adapted with her kind permission, and in close collaboration with Suzy, by members of the LABBS Music Judging Category to more closely follow the original song's structure, lyric and rhythms. The sound clip is of the upper voiced version, for information.
The arrangement is suitable for most male or mixed / SATB barbershop choruses and quartets as a popular choice for audience-friendly performance repertoire. Each voicepart is within the standard barbershop ranges of most arrangements and each verse and chorus is a repeat of the same notes with no changes, aside from what is necessary to accommodate different lyric patterns. Note: if you are unfamiliar with the scoring of male barbershop music, be aware the treble clef should be sung an octave lower than written, as designated by the 8 below the clef.
This arrangement is not suitable for use in barbershop contests.
This song and arrangement would also be a great choice for other genres of male and mixed choirs and a cappella quartets or ensembles, including high school / college / secondary school choirs wanting to try the barbershop style. It is a classic song known to all generations, with a great message of support and friendship.
