Time, Love and Tenderness — Orchestra & Vocals Sheet Music
Michael Bolton’s defining romantic ballad, arranged for full orchestra and vocals by Paul Lorenz — the professional score that has been missing from the market for three decades
There are songs that belong at the center of life’s most significant moments — and for three decades, Time, Love and Tenderness has been the one conductors needed but could never find a professional score for. That absence ends here. Paul Lorenz’s full orchestral arrangement gives conductors and musical directors exactly what the wedding and event market has demanded since 1991: a complete, performance-ready score that honors one of Michael Bolton’s most enduring compositions with the orchestral depth it deserves.
Engraved to MOLA standards, this arrangement delivers the full conductor’s score in A3 format alongside every individual orchestral part — strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion, harp, piano, and vocal lead sheet — in a single licensed download. Measure numbers at every system, page turns placed at rests, and 600 DPI resolution throughout mean this score is ready for the stand from the moment of download. Whether your setting is a gala, a wedding reception, or a formal concert, the quality that distinguishes a Paul Lorenz edition is evident in every detail.

What is the difficulty level of this arrangement?
Grade 4 — Intermediate to Professional. The orchestral parts suit professional event orchestras and advanced community ensembles. Wind and brass writing is idiomatic and well within the range of skilled players. The vocal part is accessible to any competent lead vocalist, with a range well-suited to the original Michael Bolton key.
Is a performance license included?
Yes — a performance license for live public performance is included with your purchase. No additional ASCAP, BMI, or PRS reporting is required for the Paul Lorenz arrangement itself. Standard venue licensing applies for ticketed performances, as is the case with any repertoire. If you have questions about your specific performance context, contact us before purchasing.
Can the arrangement be customized for my ensemble?
Absolutely. Paul Lorenz Music offers bespoke customization services — a capability unique in the professional sheet music industry. Whether you need alternative instrumentation (a saxophone in place of an oboe, for instance), a key transposition for a specific vocalist, or a cut version for a shorter program slot, we can tailor this arrangement to your exact requirements. Contact us directly to discuss your needs.
What is your refund policy?
Due to the digital nature of our products, we cannot offer refunds once the download has been accessed. We encourage you to review the score preview carefully and contact us with any questions before purchasing.
