Product Description

"Dumbarton's Drums" speaks to the love of a woman, which is probably returned by the man, but we're never entirely sure (unless I'm being cynical). The melody is lovely and soft. While this arrangement maintains the simplicity of the melody, it explores several moods in odd key changes. Most of the keys change logically, although they may need more rehearsal than the different verses. This was performed very successful by a community chorus in which two women regularly sang tenor, so the depth of the sound was never compromised.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
