More about this title

About the Artist: Avicii

Avicii (Tim Bergling) emerged as one of electronic music's most distinctive voices in the early 2010s, crafting deeply melodic productions that bridged club culture and mainstream pop. His signature sound combined progressive house elements with organic instrumentation and singable hooks, making his work naturally accessible to choral and instrumental ensembles. Though his life ended tragically in 2018, his catalog remains vital in music education for demonstrating how electronic production can enhance rather than replace acoustic performance.

Why we love this

Mark Brymer's arrangement captures the emotional core of this modern pop anthem without diluting its contemporary appeal. Your singers and musicians get to inhabit a song that feels current and relevant while engaging with genuinely musical material that rewards careful phrasing and dynamic control.

What to expect

Warmth and quiet strength. The song unfolds with intimate vulnerability before building into a chorus that feels both uplifting and grounded. There's a sense of connection here, both between the performers and toward the audience.

Who it's for

Choral directors seeking contemporary repertoire that their students actually want to sing, and instrumental music teachers who value crossover programming. This works equally well as a concert finale or as a confidence builder with younger or less experienced singers.

How to get the most out of it

  • Shape the melodic line with subtle dynamic swells; the song thrives on emotional transparency rather than grand gestures
  • Balance the vocal and instrumental voices so neither overwhelms. This arrangement works best when both parts feel equally essential to the sound
  • Pay attention to rhythmic precision in the accompaniment parts. Electronic music's crisp timing translates to choral settings through clean, together articulation

How to use it

Pair this with other modern pop arrangements to create a set that speaks to current student interests, or use it as a bridge piece between classical and contemporary repertoire on a mixed concert. It's particularly effective as a spring or end-of-year selection when you want something celebratory but not superficial.

Skills your students will build

  • Phrasing contemporary melodies with emotional nuance
  • Balancing blend between vocal and instrumental textures
  • Maintaining steady rhythm in groovy, syncopated accompaniment figures
  • Performing with the precision electronic music production values require
