Anything You Can Do

An eight-part song from Annie Get Your Gun that is a sure hit for a combined number with a chorus or quartet of the opposite sex. Can you guess who wins in the end? Also available in eight-part male and female versions.

Doo-Wop Medley

This medley was especially fun to concoct, with a story line set up by interpolations running throughout. To wit:

“At the Hop” starts the medley in cheery, lively fashion. Then things get less happy with “Little Darlin’.” Even worse is yet to come, with “The Great Pretender.” Desperate, the singer consults the gypsy in “Love Potion Number 9.” The magic works, and all is well again, as illustrated by “Pretty Little Angel Eyes.” A reprise of “At the Hop” caps things off nicely.

Do check this magilla out. It is in SATB form now but can easily be put into TTBB (and perhaps the voicings would work for SSAA).

Grown-Up Christmas List

Arranged for eight-part mixed voices, this Amy Grant song is a wish list for a better world. So get together with a chorus or quartet of the other sex and move your audiences’ hearts with this gem.

Hit the Road, Jack

This emphatic tune is arranged for four-part women’s voices with male solo. The fellow needs to be either a bass or a low baritone—low in more than one sense of the word? The arrangement is also available in German. That title translates as “Come, Drink Up, Jack.” Fun, eh? By the way, Anne Bureau’s tracks are actually five-part, with husband Ig typecast as the ne’er-do-well. (Just kidding, Igster.)

Jolene

This is my favorite Dolly Parton song, an opinion lots of people share. The song drives relentlessly from beginning to end, making the heartfelt plea even more powerful.

Santa Baby

Originally arranged for a female soloist with men’s quartet or chorus, the piece is now available for five women’s voice parts. This seductive song is cool, hot and fun.

Silhouettes

Yep, this is the hit song about the silhouettes on the shade. You and your audiences are invited to have large fun with this doo-wop classic with a surprise punch line! The BHS publishes all three versions—TTBB, SSAA and SATB—and carries tracks for all three, as do Kohl Kitzmiller and Tim Waurick for the TTBB chart.

With Two Wings

Marvelously energetic 8-parter about men and women working together, as sung by Friends.

You’re Just in Love

If you “hear music and there’s no one there,” get together with a quartet or chorus of the opposite sex and perform this lively, eight-part partner song. This one is a clear winner, a truce in the age-old battle of the sexes.
