4 Best Day of My Lifearr. Andy Beck. Alternative
indie rockers American Authors climbed the charts
in 14 countries with this irrepressibly upbeat anthem
that has youthful enthusiasm to spare. The plucky
banjo riff and street-percussion rhythms are instantly
recognizable, and a singable hook offers squeaky-
clean pop lyrics. The SSA voicing easily adapts for
two-part choirs by incorporating a small group of
singers on a repetitive one-bar signature phrase.

of my life..."

e definitive work
A CAPPELLA
ARRANGING
Deke Sharon & Dylan Bell.
The world loves to sing. From
barbershop groups to madrigal
choirs to vocal rock bands, there
are tens of thousands of vocal
groups in America. The success
of mainstream television programs
such as Glee and The Sing-Off
not only demonstrates the rising
popularity of vocal music; it reflects
how current trends inspire others to
join in. In addition, through various
online and on-the-ground vocal
music societies, the a cappella
market is well defined and well
connected. Like singing itself, a
cappella is a global phenomenon.
At the heart of every vocal group
is the music it performs. This often
means writing its own arrangements
of popular or traditional songs.
This book is the long-awaited
definitive work on the subject, wide
ranging both in its scope and in
its target audience - which spans
beginners, music students, and
community groups to professional
and semi-professional performers,
vocal/instrumental songwriters,
composers, and producers -
providing genre-specific insight on
a cappella writing.
