Clarinet Choir
Shes Leaving Home
Program Notes
This beautiful Lennon & McCartney song made famous by The Beatles, translates wonderfully to the scoring for Clarinet Choir or Quintet, and is faithful to the original arrangement. This arrangement can be performed with as few as 5 players or a full flute choir with multiple players on a part. It is scored for 3 Bb clarinets, Eb alto clarinet (Bb clarinet part included), and Bb bass clarinet (opt. contrabass).
Shes Leaving Home was released on The Beatles 1967 album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Paul McCartney wrote and sang the verse and John Lennon wrote the chorus, which they sang together. The songs instrumental background was performed entirely by a small string orchestra, and was one of only a few Beatles songs in which the members did not play any instruments on the recording.
