Product Description

Help! is the fifth studio album by the English rockband the Beatles and the soundtrack to their film of the same name. It was released on 6 August 1965 by Parlophone. Seven of the fourteen songs, including the singles "Help!" and "Ticket to Ride", appeared in the film and take up the first side of the vinyl album. The second side includes "Yesterday", the most-covered song ever written.
The album was met with favourable critical reviews and topped the Australian, German, British and American charts.

The song "Help!" was written primarily by Lennon. He originally conceived it at a slower tempo and regretted speeding it up to make it more commercial. Although it was only written out of need for a titular song, Lennon remained extremely proud of "Help!" from the Beatles' break-up to his death, even once calling it his favorite Beatles song he wrote.He felt it was one of his "real" songs.

Arranged standard wind quintet

The fast tempo is crotchet = 180 which is the same as the original, but the arrangement still sounds good at a lower tempo.

oboe takes melody verse 1, flute verse 2, tutti verse 3.
