More about this title

About the Artist: George M. Cohan

George M. Cohan (1878-1942) was an American songwriter, composer, playwright, and performer who shaped the sound of American musical theater in the early 20th century. His gift for writing memorable melodies and clever lyrics made him a dominant force on Broadway, and his work remains central to the American songwriting canon. Cohan's influence extends far beyond his own era; his songs appear regularly in choral curricula because they combine accessibility with genuine sophistication, offering singers a direct line to the theatrical traditions that built modern American music.

Why we love this

Robert Page's arrangement captures the infectious charm and rhythmic vitality of this Broadway standard without sacrificing musicality. The voicing sits comfortably across all four parts while preserving the song's unmistakable character, making it equally effective for concert performance or pops programming. This is the kind of arrangement that singers actually enjoy performing because it feels authentic to the material.

What to expect

Optimistic and theatrical, with the effervescent spirit of a vaudeville number meets Broadway polish. The melody practically dances, inviting singers and listeners alike into a moment of genuine American nostalgia that somehow never feels dated.

Who it's for

Any SATB choir looking to expand its concert or pops repertoire with a universally recognized American standard. This works for high school, college, and community choirs seeking material that delights audiences and gives singers a chance to connect with early 20th century musical theater traditions.

How to get the most out of it

  • Nail the rhythmic precision in the melody line. This song lives on its energy and wit, so lazy rhythms deflate the character entirely.
  • Let the harmonic movement breathe naturally. Page's arrangement has intelligent voice leading that supports forward motion; don't fight it with excessive fermatas or ritardandos.
  • Balance the parts so the text remains crystal clear. The lyrics carry comedy and sentiment, and they need to land with the audience.
  • Keep the accompaniment bouncy and light. The style calls for a spring in the step, not a plod.

How to use it

Place this in a concert exploring American musical theater or standards, either as a centerpiece or as a palate cleanser that bridges classical and contemporary programming. It pairs naturally with other early Broadway repertoire and works beautifully in pops-style concerts where the audience expects accessibility and warmth.
