More about this title

About the Composer: Cole Porter

Cole Porter (1891-1964) crafted some of Broadway's most durable and sophisticated musical theater scores. His melodies balance accessibility with harmonic wit, and his lyrics showcase wordplay and rhythmic precision that reward careful singing. Porter's works remain central to the American musical theater canon, with Kiss Me, Kate standing as one of his finest achievements.

Why we love this

Teena Chinn's arrangement captures the infectious energy of this showstopper while keeping it genuinely singable for mixed choirs at various levels. The recorded accompaniment gives your singers the authentic Broadway sound they crave, and the piece practically programs itself as an attention-grabbing opener or closer that delights both singers and audiences.

What to expect

Pure theatrical energy. The opening number bristles with anticipation and joy, capturing that electric moment right before the curtain rises on something exciting. It's Broadway theatricality distilled into a form that choirs can own and celebrate.

Who it's for

Choirs of intermediate to advanced ability who want a crowd-pleasing Broadway number with real musical substance. This arrangement works for high school and adult choirs seeking accessible yet satisfying material that showcases style and vocal blend.

How to get the most out of it

  • Bring out the rhythmic snap in the opening. These early measures set the tone for the whole number, so lock in the ensemble attack from the very first phrase.
  • Let the text shine. Porter's lyrics are funny and clever; encourage clear diction so the audience catches the humor and wordplay.
  • Use the recorded accompaniment to lock in tempos and style details during early rehearsals, then gradually shift rehearsals to a cappella or piano to build ensemble independence.
  • Layer the harmonies gradually. Begin with the melody line and add each voice part in sequence so singers understand how their parts support the whole before running full sections together.

How to use it

Open your spring concert with this and you've already won the audience over. It also serves as a natural encore or as part of a Broadway-themed program alongside other musical theater selections. The recorded accompaniment makes it a strong choice when you need sophisticated entertainment but limited rehearsal time.

Skills your students will build

  • Broadway style and legit vocal technique
  • Rhythmic precision in syncopated passages
  • Diction clarity for comedic effect
  • Ensemble balance across four voice parts
