More about this title

About the Composer: Bob Harris

Bob Harris co-wrote the original Spider-Man theme in 1967, creating one of the most instantly recognizable melodies in television history. His work with lyricist Paul Francis Webster established the sonic identity for the character that has endured across decades of comics, animation, and film adaptations.

Why we love this

Kirby Shaw's arrangement captures the swagger of Michael Bublé's recording while remaining accessible for smaller ensembles. The swinging jazz idiom gives your group permission to play with attitude and interpretation, and audiences respond immediately to those iconic opening notes.

What to expect

Cool, playful, and impossibly catchy. The swinging tempo and orchestral sophistication bring a polished nightclub atmosphere to your stage, while the unmistakable melody invites the audience into a shared moment of fun.

Who it's for

Jazz choirs and smaller mixed ensembles seeking contemporary repertoire with instant audience recognition. Directors looking for an opener or finale that energizes a concert without requiring large forces.

How to get the most out of it

  • Establish the groove early in rehearsals rather than worrying about precision first. Let the band feel the shuffle rhythm before tightening the ensemble.
  • Honor the material's pop sensibility by embracing a lighter, more conversational vocal tone than you might use in classical repertoire.
  • Balance the rhythm section carefully so the groove drives without overpowering the melodic voice.
  • Build phrasing around the natural speech rhythms of the lyric, especially in the verses where clarity matters most.

How to use it

Open a pops concert or jazz showcase with this to establish the evening's energy immediately. Pair it alongside other film and television selections to build a cohesive set, or use it as a closer that sends the audience out smiling.

Skills your students will build

  • jazz articulation and phrasing in a pop context
  • rhythmic precision in swung eighth-note idiom
  • balancing blend between melody and ensemble support
  • interpretation of lyrical content with contemporary style
