About the Arranger: Ed Lojeski
Ed Lojeski has spent decades crafting arrangements that honor the character of beloved songs while opening them to new performance contexts. His work across Broadway, pop standards, and classical repertoire demonstrates a gift for preserving emotional authenticity even as he reimagines orchestration and voicing for different ensembles.
Why we love this
Lojeski's arrangement respects the sweeping, theatrical nature of the source material while making it accessible to choral programs without requiring a full pit orchestra. The instrumental pak format gives you flexibility to use recorded accompaniment or pull instrumentation as your resources allow.
What to expect
Lush, romantic, and orchestrally rich, this arrangement captures the sweeping sentiment of its source while maintaining intimacy in the vocal writing. The accompaniment envelops the singers without overshadowing them, creating a sense of theatrical grandeur grounded in human emotion.
Who it's for
This works for concert choirs seeking Broadway material with substance, as well as advanced show choirs looking to program something beyond typical pop-oriented arrangements. Any ensemble comfortable with contemporary harmonic language and dynamic storytelling will find this rewarding.
How to get the most out of it
- Let the melody breathe in the quieter passages; resist the urge to push dynamically until the arrangement itself calls for it.
- Balance the vocal blend carefully against the accompaniment, particularly during moments where the orchestra carries harmonic weight.
- Consider staging that takes advantage of the piece's emotional arc rather than defaulting to static positioning.
How to use it
This belongs on a concert built around Broadway or standard repertoire, where it can anchor a thematic set. It also serves as a sophisticated closer for a concert program, offering the emotional weight and polish audiences expect from a finale.
Skills your students will build
- Sustaining legit vocal tone across passages requiring both power and vulnerability
- Blending contemporary Broadway harmonies with classical phrasing expectations
- Following a conductor through subtle dynamic and tempo shadings that serve emotional content
- Balancing ensemble sound when accompaniment includes both rhythmic and harmonic density
