Beauty and the Beast — Professional Orchestra Sheet Music
Alan Menken’s Academy Award-winning ballad, arranged for full orchestra & vocals by Paul Lorenz — concert-ready from the podium to the final bow
The song that Angela Lansbury recorded in one take and Alan Menken wrote in one night deserves to be performed with the same sense of inevitability — and that begins with the score. Most orchestral reductions of “Beauty and the Beast” are designed for intermediate string bands or simplified concert settings. This arrangement is not. It is a full professional orchestra score — conductor’s score, all individual parts, vocal line intact — built to the standard that a piece which won the Academy Award for Best Original Song, the Golden Globe, and the Grammy deserves to be heard.
Paul Lorenz’s arrangement captures the luminous harmonic language of Menken’s original — the gentle woodwind filigree, the swelling string lines, the warmth of the brass at the climax — and delivers it in a MOLA-compliant conductor score that respects the time of every player on stage. Measure numbers every five bars. Rehearsal letters at major structural landmarks. Page turns optimized so the music never stops, even under concert-hall pressure. “Beauty and the Beast” is among the most frequently programmed Disney pieces at live film concerts worldwide. This is the score those performances deserve.

What is the difficulty level?
Grade 5 — Professional to pre-professional orchestral standard. This arrangement is designed for symphony orchestras and advanced professional ensembles. It captures the full sonic ambition of Alan Menken’s original Academy Award-winning orchestration and is not a simplified reduction.
Do I need a performance license?
This arrangement license covers rehearsal and private study use. For public concert performances of “Beauty and the Beast” — a copyrighted work by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman — standard ASCAP, BMI, or PRS venue licensing applies, as it does for any copyrighted musical work. Most licensed concert halls and symphony orchestras already hold the required blanket licenses. The performance license documentation included in your download confirms the arrangement’s authorized use.
Can the arrangement be customized for my ensemble?
Absolutely. Paul Lorenz Music offers a bespoke customization service unique in the industry. Whether you need alternative instrumentation (a saxophone section instead of woodwinds, for example), a key transposition for a specific vocalist, or an extended concert version, we can tailor this arrangement to your exact requirements. Contact us directly to discuss your needs before purchasing.
What is your refund policy?
Due to the digital nature of our products, refunds cannot be offered once the download has been accessed. We encourage you to review the score preview carefully and contact us with any questions before purchasing. Our team is happy to answer specific questions about instrumentation, key, or formatting.
