Product Description
The iconic power ballad Total Eclipse of the Heart, made famous by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler, is brought to life in this full orchestral arrangement of the original six-minute album version. Great care has been taken to transcribe not only the harmonic voicings but also the nuances of the vocal lines, as well as the bass and drum parts, ensuring an authentic and dynamic performance. The main melody is included as cues in multiple instruments, allowing for flexibility in ensemble size and making it well-suited for professional, community, and high school orchestras alike. The soaring organ solo is highlighted in the horn section, while included bowings enhance the playability of the string parts. This arrangement is sure to be a standout feature in any Pops concert!
