More about this title
About the Artist: *NSYNC
*NSYNC emerged in the late 1990s as one of the defining pop groups of their era, known for infectious melodies, tight vocal harmonies, and production that dominated radio and MTV. Their appeal transcended typical pop demographics, making them relevant across generations of students who grew up with their music or discovered it later.
Why we love this
Tom Wallace's arrangement captures the relentless energy that made the original such a cultural phenomenon, translating synth-pop grooves and that unforgettable hook into brass and woodwind colors that cut through stadium acoustics. At Grade 3, it's accessible enough for developing ensembles yet maintains the swagger and precision that make the song instantly recognizable. Students respond viscerally to this repertoire; the motivation to nail something they actually know pays dividends across rehearsal focus and sectional discipline.
What to expect
This arrangement moves with infectious momentum from the first downbeat, built on a groove that refuses to settle. The famous chorus hits with immediate satisfaction, and the interplay between sections keeps the texture dynamic and engaging across the full duration.
Who it's for
Marching bands looking for contemporary repertoire that energizes both performers and audiences while building fundamental ensemble skills. Programs at all levels benefit from music their students recognize and want to master.
How to get the most out of it
- Establish the rhythmic foundation first by isolating the percussion section (especially kick drum and snare) until they lock into that propulsive groove; everything else sits on top of that pocket.
- Balance the main melodic line so the chorus sits clearly above the texture without drowning the harmonic support; this arrangement relies on clarity of line.
- Commit fully to the articulation marked in the part; crisp attacks on the signature phrases will emphasize the pop sensibility and keep the energy consistent across repetitions.
How to use it
Place this in a pops or contemporary-focused half of your program to create contrast with classical or traditional selections, or use it as a crowd-pleasing opener that immediately establishes rapport with your audience. It's also ideal for recruiting performances or community events where accessibility and fun factor are programming priorities.
Skills your students will build
- Maintaining steady groove and subdivisions across repeated figures
- Balance and voice leading in arranged pop harmony
- Articulation precision in fast-moving melodic passages
- Ensemble cohesion in high-energy, non-traditional contexts
