More about this title

About the Composer: Stephen Flaherty

Stephen Flaherty has built a career writing music that moves audiences on stage and in concert halls alike. His gift for melody and theatrical storytelling has earned him recognition across musical theater, film, and concert music, with work that appeals to performers and listeners at every level.

Why we love this

This arrangement captures the joy and accessibility that makes pop choral music so rewarding to teach. Andy Beck's orchestration sits perfectly in the rehearsal room, and the recorded accompaniment gives even smaller programs the sound of a full production.

What to expect

Uplifting and celebratory, with the kind of energy that makes singers and audiences both feel the momentum. The arrangement has enough harmonic color to stay interesting for the ensemble while staying accessible for performers still building their skills.

Who it's for

High school and middle school choirs looking for contemporary repertoire with theatrical flair. This works equally well for concert performances, showcases, or full musical theater productions where you need a showstopping moment.

How to get the most out of it

  • Start with the recorded accompaniment early in rehearsals to help singers lock into the style and phrasing before adding movement.
  • Build the staging gradually; the movement vocabulary should serve the song's emotional arc rather than distract from it.
  • Balance the ensemble sound in sections where the harmony thickens; clean voice leading will make the arrangement shine.

How to use it

Use this as a standalone choral feature on a concert, or integrate it into a Broadway-themed program alongside other contemporary musical theater selections. It also works as a spring concert closer when you want to send audiences out with genuine warmth and optimism.

Skills your students will build

  • Singing in contemporary musical theater style with rhythmic precision
  • Balancing ensemble blend across multiple voice parts
  • Coordinating movement and choreography with singing
  • Following recorded accompaniment with independence
