Venus Medley
A Genre-Bending, Crowd-Pleasing Pops Orchestra Mashup
Arranged by Dr. Arthur Field
What do Frankie Avalon and Shocking Blue and Bananaama all have in common? They gave us unforgettable hits called Venusand now, for the first time, they collide in this jaw-dropping medley for full pops orchestra.
From the smooth, orchestral charm of Avalons 1959 ballad to the psychedelic rock power of Shocking Blues 1969 anthem, reimagined by Bananarama and covered by J Lo, this chart launches your ensemble on a cosmic joyride through two decades of pop. With bold brass, sweeping strings, rock kit grooves, and a finale that channels Hans Zimmer meets Jay Bocook, Venus Medley is a guaranteed showstopper.
