More about this title

About the Artist: Justin Timberlake

Justin Timberlake emerged as one of pop music's most versatile performers, transitioning from boyband vocalist to solo artist and producer with remarkable range. His work spans R&B, pop, and funk influences, making him a significant figure in contemporary music that resonates across generations of students.

Why we love this

Theo Janssen's arrangement captures the infectious groove and joy of the original without losing the pop sensibility that makes this song instantly recognizable to your singers. The SSAA voicing opens this feel-good hit to your treble or mixed choirs, and the 156-page octavo gives you room to really dig into the arrangement's details and build something genuinely polished.

What to expect

Bright, celebratory, and infectious from the first note. The arrangement radiates the optimism and kinetic energy of the original while giving your singers genuine musical material to sink their teeth into, not just a novelty chart.

Who it's for

Treble choirs and mixed ensembles seeking contemporary repertoire that engages singers and audiences alike. This arrangement works particularly well for groups comfortable with pop-influenced phrasing and rhythmic independence.

How to get the most out of it

  • Lock the rhythmic precision in the opening section by having singers feel the pulse internally rather than conducting every beat; this allows the groove to breathe naturally.
  • Layer the vocal parts gradually during rehearsal so singers understand how their individual line contributes to the harmonic texture before performing all voices together.
  • Emphasize vowel consistency across the SSAA voicing to ensure the ensemble sound blends seamlessly, especially during the higher soprano passages.
  • Balance the rhythm section accompaniment so it supports rather than overshadows the choir, letting the pop-influenced groove emerge from the voices themselves.

How to use it

Consider this for a spring or end-of-year concert where you want to balance traditional choral works with something that brings your audience immediate joy. It also serves as an engaging opener for a concert focused on contemporary music or popular styles.

Skills your students will build

  • Managing rhythmic independence within a groove-based texture
  • Blending SSAA sonorities across multiple harmonic layers
  • Pop phrasing and stylistic articulation
  • Balancing ensemble precision with conversational vocal delivery
