More about this title

About the Arranger: Teena Chinn

Teena Chinn has established herself as a thoughtful arranger of popular music for young singers, with a particular gift for making Broadway standards and contemporary songs accessible without sacrificing their essential character. Her arrangements prioritize singability and engagement, recognizing that students learn musicianship most effectively when they're genuinely excited about the material they're performing.

Why we love this

Chinn's two-part voicing captures the rhythmic vitality and swagger of this 1935 classic without overwhelming emerging singers. The arrangement invites genuine ensemble fun and rhythmic vitality, which translates directly into audience energy and student ownership of the performance.

What to expect

Energetic and urbane, with the swagger of 1930s Broadway filtered through an arrangement that feels modern and immediately singable. The up-tempo swing and accessible melody invite students into a world of jazz-inflected popular music without requiring years of technique to access its joy.

Who it's for

Young choirs in grades 3 and up who are ready to explore popular music repertoire with rhythmic sophistication and style. This works equally well for mixed voice ensembles or any combination of the two parts, making it flexible for schools with evolving choir demographics.

How to get the most out of it

  • Establish the swing feel early in rehearsal by having singers tap the backbeat during sectional warm-ups; this groove needs to live in the body, not just the ears.
  • Bring out the call-and-response moments between parts by having singers lock in to each other's entries, especially in the syncopated phrases.
  • Let the finger snaps be part of your rehearsal from day one so singers experience the song as a complete rhythmic and percussive unit.
  • Shape the dynamic arc across the full arrangement; resist the urge to sing at full volume throughout, since the energy comes from the swing and clarity, not volume.

How to use it

Perfect for a spring or year-end concert that celebrates both choral artistry and pure fun. This pairs well alongside other light popular or musical theatre selections, or it can anchor a program showcasing different musical eras and styles.

Skills your students will build

  • Swing rhythm and syncopation in a 2-part texture
  • Listening and responding to sectional cues and phrase-partner relationships
  • Maintaining rhythmic independence while blending with another vocal line
  • Stylistic interpretation of jazz-influenced popular music
