More about this title

About the Arranger: Mac Huff

Mac Huff is an arranger whose work has become standard repertoire in American choral programs, particularly for pop and Broadway selections. His arrangements prioritize singability and clarity while maintaining the energy and charm of the original material, making contemporary music accessible to singers at various levels.

Why we love this

Huff's arrangement captures the infectious optimism of this Broadway moment without demanding extreme vocal gymnastics from your singers. The voicing is clean and well-balanced, giving each section something meaningful to sing while the melody stays front and center where it belongs.

What to expect

A bright, welcoming burst of theatrical joy with the rhythmic sophistication that makes Broadway arrangements fun to perform. The arrangement channels classic song and dance charm while maintaining modern sensibilities.

Who it's for

Choirs looking for an upbeat Broadway selection that works for mixed voices at intermediate to advanced levels. This is equally suited to concert programming, musical theater units, or pops concerts where you want contemporary energy.

How to get the most out of it

  • Balance the doo-wop influenced rhythmic accompaniment in the lower voices so it supports rather than overwhelms the text delivery
  • Nail the rhythmic precision in the ensemble sections; this style lives and dies by accurate syncopation
  • Let soloists sit confidently into the Broadway delivery; this arrangement rewards singers who embrace the theatrical spirit rather than fight it

How to use it

Pair this with other Broadway selections for a pops concert, or use it as an opener to set an energetic, optimistic tone for a longer concert. The 15-page length makes it substantial enough to anchor a set without demanding an entire program.

Skills your students will build

  • Managing syncopated rhythmic patterns in ensemble contexts
  • Blending doo-wop style accompaniment figures with text clarity
  • Executing Broadway performance style and phrasing
  • Balancing individual voice parts with clear ensemble texture
