About the Arrangement:
The choral version of We Are The World (SAB) stays true to the original in key, mood, and structure allowing choirs to authentically recreate the legendary sound of USA for Africa.
- Faithful melodies and voice leading
- Optional solo parts
- Fully notated duet for two soloists in the later chorus (can also be omitted)
- Chorus with backing choir and high additional voice (upper choir) as in the original
- Notated intro for brass and piano
- Chords also provided in lead sheet format ideal for flexible accompaniment
Unlike many other arrangements, this version remains in the original key and combines all central elements of the song into a rich, stirring choral setting surprisingly achievable and full of goosebump moments.
