About the Composer: Arthur Schwartz

Arthur Schwartz (1900-1984) composed for Broadway, film, and popular song throughout the 20th century. His ability to write melodies that stick with listeners while maintaining musical sophistication made him a prolific force in American musical theater from the 1920s onward.

Swartz's songs have become standards in the American songbook, recorded countless times across genres. For music educators, his work represents a bridge between accessibility and genuine musicality, making his melodies ideal for students to learn and perform.

Why we love this

Jerry Burns captures the showstopping energy of this standard in an arrangement scaled perfectly for groups with flexible instrumentation. The Grade 1.5 voicing maintains the harmonic sophistication of Schwartz's original while staying within reach for developing players, and its brisk energy makes it work equally well as a field opener, stands tune, or auxiliary feature.

What to expect

Bright, snappy, and undeniably fun. The arrangement moves with infectious energy and sits in a register that feels natural for marching band voices without sounding forced or overly adapted.

Who it's for

Marching bands of all ability levels benefit from this arrangement, especially groups new to drill field performance or looking for a confidence-building opener. The flexible instrumentation means you can field this with whatever voices you have available.

How to get the most out of it

Balance the melody against the supporting harmony so the tune cuts through even in outdoor acoustics; this works best when you're not afraid to let the lead voices shine.
Lock in the rhythmic groove early in sectionals by having rhythm section establish the tempo and pocket before adding melodic voices.
Shape the phrasing in four-bar chunks rather than phrase-by-phrase, which keeps the forward momentum characteristic of a great show opener.

How to use it

Use this as your field opener to set a high-energy tone, or spotlight it as a featured moment for auxiliary groups and drill team. Its lean timing (1:16) and immediate impact make it especially useful for competition formats or pep band situations where you need something that grabs attention fast.
