Product Description
Lullabye (Goodnight My Angel)
This
absolutely gorgeous song was written by Billy Joel in response, I believe, to
his young daughter asking him what happens when people die and, as he didnt
believe in the afterlife, he was trying to avoid answering her.
I
was asked to arrange this as a duet with a cello and a smattering of (SSA) choir.
As I was listening to recordings of this
song, a second voice emerged for me, possibly someone who has passed on, calmly
lulling the child to sleep whilst her father is trying to distract her from her
questions. This was indeed the interpretation felt by people I played it to who
found it very moving.
This
version has been reformatted for male voices, so duet, cello, smattering of
TTBB.
I
hope you enjoy it.
Included
in this pack are a full score, vocal score and cello part with what I hope are
useful cues for you to navigate your way around the piece.
Other
formats will be available shortly with more choir involvement and for those
without access to a cello.
