Avicii Levels. Arranged for Mixed Choir (SMezATBarB)

“Oh, sometimes I get a good feeling, yeah
Get a feeling that I never, never, never, never had before …”

In its original form, “Levels” is more of an instrumental number featuring a short passage from a song by soul-singer Etta James.  The energy of this exhilarating electro-pop piece with the inimitable Avicii sound is an ear-catching delight and brings audiences to their feet: a good time is guaranteed!

The editor:

Hans Vainikainen (b. 1976) hails from a new generation of conductors in the Swedish choral tradition.  His conducting repertoire covers a wide range of genres and eras, from Mahler’s Eighth Symphony to the Swedish DJ Avicii.  In 2005 he won the Swedish Conductors’ Prize, and two years later he was appointed artistic director of the Katarina kyrka, the home of Katarinakörerna, one of Sweden’s largest choral societies.

Hans Vainikainen heads Stockholm’s Katarinakörerna with more than 500 singers in various combinations.  Their programmes cover both sacred and secular music.  In his search for suitable arrangements, his eye fell on one the world’s best-known pop artists, Tim Bergling, known professionally as Avicii.  He then arranged three of Avicii’s best songs for classical choirs, intending them to be encore pieces.

“Hey Brother”, “Levels” and “Without you” are now available for six-part mixed or female choir.  The arrangements offer a wide variety of vocal and choral possibilities and attention has been paid that all parts are of the same musical standard. Whether homophonic or unisono, they artfully intertwine from one passage to the next. However, for all their sophistication the arrangements remain manageable and easy to learn, displaying the typical groove of each Avicii song within a multi-layered texture.

- The Avicii dance hit now for choir

- An exhilarating catchy number

- Easy to learn
