More about this title

About the Composer: Cy Coleman

Cy Coleman (1929-2004) was a composer, lyricist, and pianist who wrote some of Broadway's most enduring comedies and musicals. His gift for infectious melody and rhythmic vitality made shows like Wildcat, Little Me, and On the Twentieth Century instant classics. Coleman's music balances sophisticated harmonic writing with accessibility, making his work ideal for educational settings where students can engage with genuine Broadway craftsmanship.

Why we love this

Carl Strommen's arrangement captures the infectious energy of Coleman's original while making it fully accessible to intermediate choirs. The orchestration translates brilliantly to voices without losing the spark and humor that made this song a Broadway standout, giving your singers genuine material to sink their teeth into rather than a watered-down version.

What to expect

Jaunty and good-natured, with a wink in every phrase. This arrangement bounces with the optimism and sass of the original song, inviting your singers to perform with personality and enjoy the theatrical storytelling that makes Broadway music special.

Who it's for

Intermediate choirs seeking an upbeat, character-driven Broadway selection that doesn't require extensive rehearsal time. Grade 3 accessibility means this works well for high school choirs, community groups, and advanced middle school ensembles looking for fun with substance.

How to get the most out of it

  • Establish the rhythmic snap in rehearsal by having the choir tap the syncopated figures before singing; Coleman's comedy relies on precise rhythmic delivery, and loose timing flattens the humor.
  • Shape the dynamic arc carefully through each phrase rather than singing at a single level; this song thrives when energy builds and releases intentionally.
  • Balance the part writing so that no single voice dominates the texture; Strommen's arrangement spreads the melodic interest across all four parts, and ensemble cohesion matters more than soloistic prominence.

How to use it

Program this as a lighter moment in a concert featuring more dramatic choral literature, or pair it with other upbeat secular selections for a Broadway-themed concert section. Its moderate length (12 pages) and moderate difficulty level make it an excellent choice for spring concerts when you want audience engagement without sacrificing musical quality.

Skills your students will build

  • Reading syncopated rhythm patterns in SATB voicing
  • Balancing part independence while maintaining ensemble blend
  • Performing with rhythmic precision and theatrical expression
  • Shaping phrase dynamics to support narrative and comedy
