About the Arranger: Alan Billingsley

Alan Billingsley

Alan Billingsley brings decades of professional arranging and composing across film, television, theme parks, and live performance to every project he touches. His credentials span from NBC's "Days of Our Lives" to original Broadway compositions, and his work has earned seven Grammy consideration nods. His deep partnership with Disney and experience as a clinician at their Magic Music Days program makes him particularly attuned to what works in educational settings.

Based in Los Angeles with a degree in music and psychology from Indiana University, Billingsley operates a fully digital recording studio and continues to work across commercial recordings, corporate events, and educational markets. His arrangements for choirs consistently balance accessibility with the polish and sophistication that comes from working at the highest professional levels.

Why we love this

Billingsley's experience arranging for Disney attractions and Broadway productions means this medley has genuine theatrical polish without demanding professional-level singers. The 23-page score gives you real substance to work with; this isn't a throwaway novelty piece but a crafted arrangement that respects both the source material and your ensemble's capabilities.

What to expect

Playful and accessible, with the warmth and nostalgia Disney melodies carry. The medley format keeps energy moving; you're not dwelling in one emotional space but rather celebrating a parade of character moments that audiences instantly recognize and enjoy.

Who it's for

Choirs performing family-friendly concerts, spring shows, or community events where Disney content lands well with audiences of all ages. Works for high school choirs and strong middle school groups with confident readers across all four parts.

How to get the most out of it

  • Study the Disney originals beforehand if your singers don't know them well. Familiarity with the melodies helps singers commit to the style and phrasing rather than reading it as abstract notes.
  • Pay attention to the transitions between songs in the medley structure. Billingsley likely crafted these carefully, so clean cuts and tempo shifts will feel intentional rather than jarring.
  • Lean into character and personality in the text. These songs belong to specific Disney sidekicks with distinct personalities, and that vocal color makes the difference between pleasant and genuinely entertaining.
  • Balance the SATB voicing so inner parts don't disappear. With melody-driven Disney material, inner voices need attention to maintain harmonic clarity.

How to use it

Open a lighter set or program this as a palate cleanser between heavier choral works. It pairs naturally with other Broadway or contemporary pop arrangements and gives audiences a moment to smile before returning to more demanding repertoire.
