Chart Info
"Minecraft," c418's "title" composition for this ground-breaking game, sets a sublimely relaxed and reflective mood with its simple melody and harmony. This four-part arrangement, with piano accompaniment, subtly develops on this material, expanding the theme into a brief but effective piece fit for beginning and intermediate choirs and vocal jazz groups.
The arrangement features no solos, making it logistically easy for large choirs and four-voice groups alike to put together. A coloratura soprano moment pops up for a few bars toward the end of the piece, but works just as well when sung down an octave, or with only one or two vocalists singing the high part.
