"Minecraft" is one most beloved and best-selling video games of all time, and it's been one of the most popular games for nearly 20 years, capturing the hearts of gamers both young not so young (including yours truly!). The vast number of hours that hundreds of millions of gamers around the world have experienced engrossed in their very own Minecraft worlds make the game's music deeply nostalgic and comforting.

This series of arrangements features a wide variety of voicing types and challenge levels to serve the many choral ensemble who would like to rehearse and perform this wonderful music composed by Daniel Roselfeld (a.k.a. "418"). All arrangements are wordless, using simple syllables to create beautiful choral textures and to transport your listeners back to a magical world of exploration, discovery and creativity.
Chart Info
"Sweden" (also known as "Calm 3") is very well-known to Minecraft players, as it's one of the most regularly heard pieces of music while the player moves around their unique world of blocks. This three-part arrangement, with piano accompaniment, uses varying vocal textures to create a slight build from its sparse intro, also implementing a vocal "pizzicato strings" effect, as is heard in the original version. "Sweden" is appropriate for beginning and intermediate choirs and vocal jazz groups. The arrangement features no solos, making it logistically easy for large choirs and three-voice groups alike to put together.
As this is the one of the first Level 1 arrangements at KerryMarsh.com, we'll feature special low prices for both the arrangement and the Vocal Part Tracks available to help your students practice their part independence at home.
