Does my arrangement suck a lot, or just a bit?

[lerocketrolla]

Alright, guys, in the spirit of sharing our musical endeavours, I decided to upload the score of a vocal arrangement I did earlier this year. I might be able to record it sometime in the summer, but for now I'd be really thankful for the opinion of all you music-reading fabulous people.

The song is Queen's Love Of My Life, arranged for a chamber SATB choir with occasional divisi for bigger cadences, sung a capella; some of the more extreme high and/or low notes were thought for the specific people in this choir, so don't worry about that, I got some good basses.

Here it goes then, lay it on me!

Have you got a sound file to go with that? That would make it much easier to give you feedback.

Hey dude,

Can you send a .mus?

Did you do the file in Finale or Sibelius?

On paper it looks great, and I like the places where the voices split, but I'm not a great enough musician to hear all 4 parts with just reading it.

I made a sound file, but I hate how Sibelius plays the dynamics and tempo changes so clumsily, it sounds terrible. I'll get some people together and make a little demo soon.

The audio is too big to post here, so I uploaded it to my website, you can download it with this link.

Sorry, i'm not that experienced in the field of arrangements so I can't really give any useful feedback
