| Yes - sometimes key changes do affect choral arrangements and orchestrations, and yes, I would agree that the result isn't always satisfying (though I'm personally ok with the Pippin changes). One of my own examples would be the changes made to the rental version of "Will-A-Mania" from The Will Rogers Follies, a 3rd lower than the original (recorded) key, with all sorts of adjustments made to the choral parts and orchestrations, and it just doesn't work as well IMO. |
