More about this title

About the Composer: Cinco Paul

Cinco Paul is a composer and lyricist whose work spans film, television, and theater. He co-created the musical Schmigadoon! with Karey Kirkpatrick, drawing on his gift for crafting music that feels both contemporary and steeped in theatrical tradition.

Paul's compositions demonstrate a sharp ear for parody and pastiche. His songs capture the conventions of the musical theater idiom while infusing them with modern sensibility and humor, making his work particularly valuable for choral programs seeking material that engages young singers through wit and recognizable theatrical vocabulary.

Why we love this

Mac Huff's arrangement transforms a comic showstopper into an accessible 2-part vehicle that preserves the song's absurdist charm without losing its musical punch. The arrangement lands the humor squarely on the singers' shoulders, giving performers permission to lean into the ridiculous premise while maintaining solid musical foundation. Your choir will connect instantly with material this entertaining.

What to expect

Playful and irreverent, with a melody that sticks in the ear. The song exudes Broadway energy: bright, theatrical, and unapologetically silly. Singing it lands somewhere between parody and genuine affection for the musical idiom itself.

Who it's for

This arrangement suits choirs with developing sight readers and singers ages 12 and up. The 2-part voicing keeps it accessible without sacrificing fun, making it ideal for programs seeking concert openers, pops concerts, or shows that welcome musical theater material.

How to get the most out of it

  • Commit fully to the comedic premise. The lyrics invite broad interpretations, and singers who embrace the absurdity without winking at the audience deliver the strongest results.
  • Balance vowel consistency across both parts during unison sections. The arrangement likely features moments where parts merge, and uniformity of sound sells the comedy.
  • Mark any dynamic shifts or rhythmic syncopation in advance. Comedy often hinges on precision, and ensemble clarity makes the humorous moments land crisply.

How to use it

This works brilliantly as a concert opener or closer, setting a lighthearted tone and immediately connecting your audience to the stage. It pairs well with other Broadway selections or pops arrangements when you want to signal that the evening will include theatrical material with humor. Consider programming it when your choir needs a morale boost during rehearsals or a moment of levity in a concert that otherwise features more traditional fare.

Skills your students will build

  • Stylistic interpretation of comedic musical theater material
  • Balanced 2-part singing with independent line awareness
  • Rhythmic precision in syncopated passages
  • Diction clarity in sung humor
