You're Welcome (from Moana) (arr. Mark Brymer): 2-Part Choral Octavo

Brymer captures the infectious confidence and rhythmic swagger of the original without overcomplicating the voicing. This arrangement lets younger singers own the song's attitude rather than simply executing notes, and the two-part writing creates real harmonic color without requiring extensive part independence skills.

Cocky, joyful, and propulsive. The arrangement captures the character's charm and humor while maintaining the Pacific rhythmic flavor of the original. Your singers will feel the confidence of the song in their bodies as much as in their voices.

Elementary and middle school choirs looking for contemporary material with real personality and cultural relevance. This works equally well for small ensemble formats and larger groups, and it appeals to singers who connect with film and pop music.

• Nail the rhythmic precision in the opening phrase. This song lives in its groove, so lock the ensemble on the syncopation before worrying about dynamic nuance.
• Find the vocal swagger. The character of 'You're Welcome' demands confidence and attitude from your singers. Coach them to commit fully to the performance energy rather than pulling back.
• Let the accompaniment drive the tempo. The rhythmic foundation matters more than perfect blend at this tempo, so lean into the recorded track and let it anchor your singers.
• Layer in the dynamics gradually during rehearsal. Start with a solid rhythmic foundation, then add the emotional peaks and valleys once the ensemble feels secure with the notes.

This pairs beautifully with other contemporary Disney film arrangements for a concert that speaks to your audience's actual musical lives. It also works as an energetic second half opener to shake off any heaviness from preceding repertoire, or as the closer to leave the audience smiling.

• Rhythmic accuracy in syncopated patterns
• Sustaining vocal energy and character over multiple phrases
• Maintaining ensemble cohesion at tempo
• Two-part harmonic awareness and balance
