This is an arrangement of Scarborough Fair I've done for the choir I run, and I'm posting it here for a few opinions on how it looks so far. The descant parts need some work, I know, but the basic idea is there. This was basically a case of "how many different ways can I harmonise a I IV V melody", heh. My favourite verse is the third verse, which starts on chord IV. The pseudo-polyphonic bit on the fourth verse doesn't quite work, yet, so I'm wondering if any of you are willing to suggest a few changes to make it sound a bit nicer, and the same for the descants.
I've run it through Harmony Assistant as well to get a pseudo-sung OGG (
not MP3) version which makes it sound a bit less Carousel Music, heh.
