Blessed is the Man

(click voicing to view and hear online)

 

Key of C          Key of F

 

 

Blessed Is the Man is presented in two keys to allow more young singers the opportunity to enjoy this Eugene Butler work.  The arrangment in the key of [C] is best suited for an early adolescent all-boys' group: (Treb, CI, CII, B). The key of [F] arrangment fits an early adolescent mixed choir: (S,A,C,B). Directors should examine both arrangements to determine the on best fits their singers.

 

 

Check the four-part variable voicing charts for the key of C and for the key of F to determine the additional voicing options with which each arrangement  may be used.

When you click either key of Blessed Is the Man you want to hear, you will access an engraved copy of the piece.  When the new page appears, if you haven't already downloaded the scorch plug-in, you will be asked to do so. This plug-in gives you access to all the scores on the Cambiata Press website.  After the music appears on your screen, there are TWO WAYS to view and hear it:

1.  Click the "play" icon and you will hear the piece played electronically, and as it plays, the cursor will lead your vision through the piece.  Read the text as you listen to the music.

 

2.  Click the "Hear Choir Audio" link (upper right hand corner) to hear a choral ensemble sing the piece.  Use the Sibelius "page" icon to move the pages of the engraved copy manually as you listen.  Do not click the "play" icon while the ensemble is singing or you will hear both renditions simultaneously.
