Product Description
Words and Music by Rachel Platten and David Bassett. Arranged in 2016 by Rebecca (Boo) de Bruin. 6 pages for Sweet Adelines (ladies' barbershop) quartet. (Tenor, lead, baritone, bass are roughly equivalent to SSAA). Please note: in keeping with normal barbershop practice the men's barbershop voicing names are used (tenor, lead, baritone and bass) and an octave-shifted bass clef is used for the baritone and bass parts.
Fight Song was recorded in 2015 by Rachel Platten. It peaked at number 6 in the Billboard 100 chart, and also topped the charts in the UK . This arrangement was written for a chorus of young women, and as such the ranges are relatively narrow. It is suitable for middle school / high school groups (although might be better sung in G than F for particularly young voices), with a positive, self-empowering message.
Vocal ranges are:
Tenor (S1): F4 - D5 (F above middle C to D above high C)
Lead (S2): A3 - D5 (A below middle C to D above high C) - However, until the last two bars, the lowest note is a middle C. By swapping the baritone and lead parts at the end, it would be possible to keep this part on middle C and above.
Baritone (A1): A3 - Bb4 (A below middle C to Bb above middle C)
Bass: F3 - G4 (F below middle C to G above middle C)
