More about this title
About the Composer: Paul Epworth
Paul Epworth is a multi-Grammy-winning producer and songwriter who has shaped the sound of contemporary pop and rock. His work with Adele on the album '21' established him as a master of crafting songs that blend commercial appeal with genuine emotional depth, earning him recognition across the music industry for his ability to build songs with both radio presence and artistic integrity.
Epworth's production approach emphasizes strong melodic hooks and rhythmic clarity, qualities that translate effectively into educational arrangements. His songs have become staples in music programs because they engage students with contemporary material while maintaining musical substance.
Why we love this
Larry Moore's arrangement captures the sultry backbone of this hit without requiring a rhythm section, making it ideal for string-focused programs seeking contemporary repertoire with real impact. The bluesy character and gospel-influenced harmony give students something substantive to sink their teeth into, far beyond typical pop-song arrangements. Programming this alongside classical or folk material creates a refreshing contrast that reminds audiences why strings remain essential to modern music.
What to expect
Moody and soulful, this arrangement wraps the listener in warm string textures and bluesy harmonic movement. The 2:30 duration maintains momentum while allowing the melancholic, introspective quality of the song to linger.
Who it's for
String orchestras in grades 3-4 that want to program contemporary music with substance and emotional resonance. Directors building a season that mixes classical foundations with pop repertoire will find this arrangement gives students meaningful musical challenges without oversimplifying Adele's original.
How to get the most out of it
- Shape the phrases with the underlying groove rather than playing them straight; the arrangement thrives on rhythmic flexibility within its soulful pocket.
- Balance the melody line with supporting voices so the blues inflections in the harmony stay audible and add to the arrangement's character.
- Lean into the gospel-blues feel by letting vibrato and articulation choices breathe with the song's emotional weight rather than maintaining classical restraint throughout.
How to use it
Position this as a closing piece for a concert featuring diverse genres, or open a pops program with it to signal that your ensemble takes contemporary music seriously. The arrangement's relative accessibility makes it strong mid-season repertoire that builds ensemble cohesion before tackling more complex chart work.
Skills your students will build
- Reading and executing blues-influenced articulations and vibrato
- Balancing melody and harmonic support in contemporary arranged music
- Maintaining rhythmic groove while playing ensemble parts
- Shaping phrases with attention to emotional content rather than technical perfection alone
