More about this title

About the Composer: Diane Warren

Diane Warren is one of the most prolific and successful songwriters in contemporary music, with a catalog spanning film, television, and popular recording artists. Her compositions have earned Grammy nominations, Academy Award nominations, and countless platinum certifications, making her a defining voice in pop songwriting since the 1980s. Warren's melodic gift and understanding of what resonates with audiences have made her work foundational to music education curricula exploring modern composition and arrangement.

Why we love this

This is a choir-friendly arrangement of a song that already has momentum built into its DNA. Alan Billingsley's orchestration captures the soaring, aspirational energy of the original while keeping the voicing accessible for mixed ensembles. Directors appreciate that the recorded accompaniment sits perfectly in the mix, allowing singers to focus on blend and phrasing rather than fighting the track.

What to expect

Optimistic and powerful, with the kind of melody that sticks with listeners long after performance ends. The arrangement balances accessibility with sophistication, allowing singers to feel both supported by the accompaniment and challenged by the vocal demands. There's genuine warmth here, paired with a driving rhythmic undertow that keeps energy propulsive.

Who it's for

Mixed choirs ranging from high school to college and community ensembles who want contemporary pop material that doesn't compromise musical substance. Singers benefit from the well-crafted vocal writing and the motivational message that connects emotionally with modern audiences.

How to get the most out of it

  • Build the dynamic shape gradually across the verse and into the chorus; resist the urge to sing full voice from the top, which will flatten the arc.
  • Balance the lower voices in the harmonic foundation so the melody line sits on top without having to strain for clarity.
  • Use the recorded accompaniment as a rhythmic anchor during early rehearsals, then gradually transition to singing sections unaccompanied to solidify part independence.
  • Lock onto the emotional core of the text; this song thrives on conviction, so rehearse with intention rather than mechanical precision.

How to use it

Pair this with contemporary pieces in a pop-themed concert or use it as a standalone opener for an evening that mixes classical and modern repertoire. The inspirational lyrical content works well in spring concerts or as a finale that leaves audiences on an uplifted note.

Skills your students will build
