Published as part of the Hal Leonard Choral series (launched July 2022), the SAM-Klang choral arrangements by Morten Schuldt-Jensen are extensive and varied. The title comes from ‘SAM’ in the German ‘zusammen’, meaning together, and ‘Klang’, the Danish word for harmony. The series is scored for Soprano, Alto, and ‘Men’, a tenor-bass amalgamation as the lower-voice part, and it serves groups that may not have enough tenors and basses to form SATB choirs. The series description explains how this ‘enables youth choirs to gain access to classical choral literature and ensures that mixed choirs who face challenges in finding singers for all male voice-parts, continue to have access to well-loved repertoire’. There is also mention of ‘tackling the financial burdens of large orchestral productions’.
