vocal arrangement
Sung parts organized
A vocal arrangement is the adaptation of a musical piece for voices, specifying how different vocal parts—soprano, alto, tenor, bass—interact with each other and any accompanying instruments.
The arranger decides harmonies, who sings what, and when: The a cappella group needed a new vocal arrangement of the pop song.
