More about this title
About the Artist: Josh Groban
Josh Groban is a classically trained vocalist whose crossover appeal has made him one of the best-selling artists of the 21st century. His work in film and theater, particularly his performance as the Beast in Disney's 2017 live-action adaptation of Beauty and the Beast, showcases his ability to bring emotional depth and vocal power to storytelling. For music educators, Groban's recordings serve as models of expressive, character-driven singing that inspire students to connect their technical skills with genuine emotional expression.
Groban's classical training combined with his musical theater credentials makes his interpretations valuable reference recordings for ensembles working with contemporary film music and crossover repertoire. His vocal control and phrasing demonstrate how sustained legit singing can carry profound emotional weight in narrative contexts.
Why we love this
Ed Lojeski's arrangement harnesses the raw vulnerability in Groban's recording while giving your ensemble room to express the Beast's internal conflict. The orchestration balances accessibility with enough harmonic depth to keep musicians engaged, and the emotional arc of the piece rewards singers who commit to storytelling over perfection.
What to expect
This arrangement captures the ache of unrequited longing and the weight of isolation. The music swells with hope and defiance before settling into tender resignation, creating a journey that moves through anger, yearning, and fragile vulnerability in succession.
Who it's for
Choirs performing film music or looking for contemporary literature with strong character development will find this arrangement accessible and engaging. The piece works well for intermediate to advanced ensembles that can handle the emotional demands and sustain required in legit vocal style.
How to get the most out of it
- Build the sustained passages gradually rather than arriving at full volume immediately. The Beast's isolation needs space to breathe, so shape each phrase with dynamic intention from the first note.
- Listen closely to the recorded accompaniment to lock the phrasing and rubato. Groban's interpretation includes subtle tempo fluctuations that signal emotional shifts; mirroring these creates authenticity.
- Balance the vocal parts so the primary melody lines emerge clearly. In ensemble sections, support voices should sit underneath without muddying the harmonic texture.
- Attend to the text as a character study. Each phrase explores a different facet of the Beast's emotional state, so lyrics should inform your expressive choices.
How to use it
Place this as a powerful ballad moment in a concert featuring Disney or film music, where its emotional maturity will contrast effectively with lighter selections. It also serves as an excellent showcase for a solo vocalist with choir support, allowing you to highlight a standout singer while keeping the ensemble invested in the accompaniment.
