Wings (opb. Little Mix)
Arranged: 2017
Performed by: Tone Def A Cappella
Parts: Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Baritone, Bass w/ Female Trio
Duration: ~3:00
To close their 2017 ICCA performance, Tone Def A Cappella wanted a bang that could wow the crowd. The answer to that request was "Wings" by Little Mix: a fast-paced, female-empowering shuffle that provides a burst of energy, empowerment, enthusiasm, and vocal excellence. The arrangement puts the spotlight on a female trio, who dictates the raw power and layers atop a bouncy and grooving background ensemble. Finally, the arrangement closes with a pure a cappella wall of sound from the entire group, with an unforgettable outro that will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.
Fun fact: Maria Fernandez, the soloist who sung the lead in the trio at ICCAs, got nominated for "Best Soloist" with this arrangement!
