More about this title

About the Artist: Idina Menzel

Idina Menzel's soaring soprano voice and emotional depth have made her one of Broadway's most celebrated performers. Her interpretations of character-driven songs have earned her a Tony Award and a devoted following across theater, film, and concert stages. Her work spans from complex musical theater roles to introspective ballads, always marked by vocal control and dramatic authenticity that resonates with audiences and singers alike.

Why we love this

Mac Huff's arrangement captures the intimate vulnerability of Menzel's original while making it genuinely singable for three-part mixed choirs. The piece balances accessibility with musical substance; soloists get rewarding material without overshadowing the ensemble, and the harmonic language supports both emotional depth and intonation clarity.

What to expect

Quiet and gathering, like a moment of shared understanding. The arrangement wraps around you gradually, building intimacy without excess sentiment. There's space to breathe and room for the text to land.

Who it's for

Directors seeking a contemporary ballad with real emotional weight that works for mixed choirs without requiring advanced vocal chops. This piece serves high school and community choirs equally well, offering singers something they recognize while teaching them to honor a song's simplicity.

How to get the most out of it

  • Shape the phrasing in long arcs rather than phrase-to-phrase. This ballad demands breath control that mirrors a vocalist's legit approach to the line.
  • Let dynamics do the storytelling work. Resist the urge to pump emotion into tempo changes; instead, use subtle volume shifts to reveal the lyrical intention.
  • Balance your solo voices carefully against the SAB texture. The arrangement is designed so the ensemble provides harmonic foundation without drowning out a soloist's natural timbre.
  • Attend to vowel consistency across parts, especially in sustained moments. Slight vowel distortion multiplies when three parts hold the same harmony.

How to use it

Pair this with seasonal programming during winter concerts, or use it as a reflective anchor between higher-energy pieces. It also works beautifully in services or community events where a single, unrushed song can set a meaningful tone.

Skills your students will build

  • Sustaining legit vocal tone over extended phrases
  • Blending SAB harmonic texture without losing individual part integrity
  • Responding to text nuance with dynamic shape rather than tempo manipulation
  • Listening and tuning within three-part harmony across full measures
