ARCADIA CHORALE
A New Kind of Season
Virtual Performance

George Levandowski, Soloist
The Arcadia Chorale is proud to release its third and final recording of the 20-21 season: And So It Goes.
Billy Joel was asked in a 2010 interview which song was his best work that received minimum attention. He started playing And So It Goes. This song is about loss. The loss described in the song is about losing a love interest and/or a companion.
As singers through the pandemic, we lost the opportunity to rehearse and perform together. Additionally, this past year the Arcadia Chorale lost its beloved music director and conductor, Dr. Steven Thomas, after a long illness. This recording culminates our season with a mix of emotions. Arcadia is looking forward to coming together in the fall for a new full season of singing together!
All CDC and Pennsylvania State guidelines were scrupulously adhered to during the recording project. Each singer was recorded individually during the entire process.
Thank-you for taking the time to listen to our third recording of the 2020-2021 season, And So It Goes, composed by Billy Joel and arranged by Bob Chilcott.

What a beautiful arrangement of the song. And yes, Billy Joel is an American Treasure.
This is the arrangement I sang in my HS choir 30yrs ago. Wow, long time.
What a beautiful sea of angelic faces
Great… now I’m going down ANOTHER rabbit hole of choir excellence… and I’m LOVING EVERY NOTE! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
A truly wonderful performance of one of the saddest and sweetist songs ever written by one of America's most loved, and most talented writer/performers. He will go down in history with the likes of Stephen Foster and George Gershwin... thank you, Billy Joel, for your wonderful music.
The tenor soloist has such a wonderful voice. Beautiful song/arrangement/performance.
Beautiful singers.
This gives me chills every time I hear it. Very well done.
I learned this in high school choir.beautiful harmony it's one of my favorites.billy Joel is a wonderful artist!!!!
Wonderful, everyone! Especially the lowest basses were unbelievably pure and great!
And so it goes............. that we all know this is a perfect performance ! Congrats to you all.
The singer was leaning sideways with pain in his heart! Heartrending performance!
Angelic voices sung, through Billy joel
This is very beautiful - thank you and well done everyone. Am both a huge Billy Joel fan and a lover of choral music - so this was a delight and very moving. Rest in peace your music director Dr Steven Thomas - beautiful photograph.
Best wishes from here in London.
I can’t stop listening……❤️
Beautifully done! I am a huge fan of Billy Joel. This song is my favorite of all his works.
Just beautiful. I never heard this sung as a chorale piece. But you did it beautifully! We’ll done.
Blend and breath control is impressive. Well done.
One Word..... BEAUTIFUL
The tenor soloist's tone and emotional inflection is just perfection. You and voces 8 are my favorite choirs. Thank you 🙏
A beautiful tribute to your beloved musical director. We also lost ours towards the end of COVID. I felt your pain.
Absolutely incredibly beautiful. Angelic.
Beautiful. I loved basses the most
In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along
I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense
And every time I've held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you, soon, I suppose
But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break
And this is why my eyes are closed
It's just as well for all I've seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows
So I would choose to be with you
That's if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows
Very good performance of this, no background noise like other recordings I've heard on TH-cam. I remember singing this in high school choir 25 years ago! Excellent arrangement.
What a BEAUTIFUL rendition! Thank you so much for sharing such great talent
love this performance! Have your performed "Goodnight my angel" ?
This song is sung by Billy Joel is played at the end of "Lost Without You" episode of Signed, Sealed, Delivered.
Wow! Beautiful perfection!
wooooow,fantastic
Lovely.

Beautiful, as is the King's Singers with the people choir. It is a most beautiful composition. Billy Joel's lyrics and tune come together perfectly. XXX
Wow, goosebumps! 👏
Magnificent!
For me, a sweet surprise... Incredible, Billy Joel's versatility!
Wow! Great harmonies, great videography, and a touching solo!
Who could ask for anything more?
Well, you _might_ ask for clean entrances and cutoffs.
beautiful !🕊🌿💗⚘
Magnifique !🤩
Wow!
So Beautiful
The visual was a bit difficult to enjoy, but this is an outstanding transcription of a beautiful song, sung with perfection. Thank you all.
So beautiful!
Beautiful arrangement.
AMAZING !!!!!!!!
What an unexpected blessing to stumble upon this glorious piece. Thank you!!👏👏👏
sooooooo good
I go to extremes
❤
Love the song. Love the performance. Love you!
Very cool how you put the videos together for the virtual performance
♥️♥️♥️
Great Job Musically and Technically ..
Loooovely!
Thank you for recording one of Billy Joel’s most memorable songs. Love that you sung the 4-part harmony he embedded in the song. Granted the soloist has a good voice although this part needs a lighter voice and one that expresses the pain and conflict of the lyrics. A similar situation occurred in the initial recording of this heartbreaking song by the Houston Chamber Choir. They recorded a follow-up version with a different soloist whose voice was perfect for the solo.
It's better to have subtitles , thank you
Past
I'm a big Billy Joel fan but not a lover of this song. However....this is such a lovely version and, dare I say it, better than Billy's....IMHO....so haunting....
If I broke up w/ a teenage Elle Macpherson I'd be bummed out AND inspired to write this ...
😂 In your dreams
Good sound, but very sloppy.
Beautiful!
In every there is a room.
A sanctuary sate and strong
To heal the wounds lovers psst
Until a new one comes along
I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still is my self defence
My silence is my self defense
And every time l’ve held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose
But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break
And this is why my eyes are closed
It’s just as well for all l’ve seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you’re the only one who knows
So l would choose to be with you
That’s if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break
And so it goes , and so it goes
And you’re the only one who knows

Beautiful!
Beautiful !
