More about this title

About the Composer: Mark Charlap

Mark Charlap composed the score for Peter Pan, the 1954 Broadway musical that became a defining work of American musical theater. His gift for melody and his ability to write music that appeals across age groups made him a sought-after composer for theater and film throughout his career. Charlap's work continues to be performed in schools, community theaters, and professional productions worldwide.

Why we love this

This is the showstopping number that every young singer wants to sing. Charlap's melody is instantly joyful and sits perfectly for developing voices, while Sally K. Albrecht's arrangement gives you flexibility in how you voice it. The recorded accompaniment keeps energy high and lets singers focus on the character moment rather than fighting instrumental balance.

What to expect

Pure theatrical joy. Charlap's melody soars with infectious confidence, and the rhythm bounces with childlike exuberance. This is a song that makes you want to celebrate and believe in magic, with orchestration that feels bright and buoyant throughout.

Who it's for

High school and middle school choirs looking for accessible Broadway material with strong solo or featured voice potential. This works equally well for concert programming or as part of a larger theatrical presentation. Any choir that can handle straightforward part-writing and wants to build audience connection through a beloved song.

How to get the most out of it

  • Lean into the character's exuberance without oversinging. The magic of this song is in its infectious joy, not volume.
  • Balance the recorded accompaniment so it supports rather than drowns out your singers. Start low in rehearsal and build gradually.
  • Work the rhythmic precision in the opening phrase separately. Clean articulation of the text makes the character shine.
  • Let the dynamic shape breathe naturally. Avoid dropping volume on the second verse; maintain the theatrical momentum.

How to use it

Feature this in a Broadway pops concert or a program focused on theatrical favorites. It pairs well with other classic musical theater selections and serves as an energizing closer or a showpiece for a strong soloist with choral support. The recorded accompaniment makes it practical for concerts where a live orchestra isn't available.

Skills your students will build

  • Phrase shaping and legit vocal expression in a theatrical context
  • Balancing solo/featured voice with choral support
  • Rhythmic precision and clean articulation within a pop-influenced style
  • Sustaining character and emotional authenticity while reading from a score
