Blackbird/Yesterday by The Beatles. Arranged by Tom Wallace. For Marching Band (Score & Parts). Arrangers' Publ Marching Band. Grade 3. Published by Arrangers' Publishing Company.
In total contrast to “Eleanor Rigby”, this arrangement draws on the lyrical nature of these graceful and well-known melodies of “Blackbird” and “Yesterday”. Tom Wallace's genius is on display as he interweaves both melodies in natural and effortless transition. The pace of this up-tempo ballad moves well and at 1:20 provides a nice change of pace without lingering too long.
