A music arranger’s guide to pop song composition and arrangement techniques
Mohd Nasir Hashim1.

Songs were composed by songwriters, vocal and orchestral performances were extracted by producers, and the results recorded and mastered by audio engineers. The arranger’s task was to translate the chords and melodies into an orchestral score, which could then be performed in one take by a team of musicians. (Copied from article).
