The arrangement is by Welligton Sousa, for Symphony
Orchestra in B-flat, the original key. The arranger
chose to write the orchestra arrangement in the
original key of B-flat, considering it to be the best
adaptation as it can be sung by a voice, allowing the
singer to rehearse individually with a piano.
Additionally, there was a rhythmic adaptation,
replacing sixteenth notes with eighth notes in a 6/8
time signature, which will facilitate reading for the
musicians.
