For the play by Goodrich and Hackett. Performed at The Broadway Theatre in 2009.

There are many monologues by Anne taken directly from passages in her diary. They are used during scene changes and whilst time passes. I have included the lovely voice of Sally Brooks, who played Anne in this version so that you can hear what the music accompanies.

The final two peices were written for passages where the radio is on. The Oom Pah Pah is a bit tongue in cheek taking off a German (Strauss) waltz so that the characters could dance on stage. The Clarinet Concerto (rather grandly named) is designed to be Chopinesque and played over the final scene as the Nazi guards discovered the families.

Choir arrangements taken from a show with the theme of "Acts who have played Las Vegas".

I run a community contemporary choir in Bridlington, East Yorkshire. I create all of their arrangements from scratch. They are usually performed to pre-existing backing tracks rather than piano accompaniment. We perform in 4 part harmony with 3 parts women and 1 part men. Old fashioned SATB doesn't really apply for modern arrangements, but these arrangements could be considered:

SATB (if your tenors are good up top!)
SSAB

If you are interested in performing any of these then please get in touch. I can also adapt any for your choir format. Ours is:

F1 - Top register singers (those who find any form of belting weird!)
F2 - Mix Belters (those who have a higher belt sound)
F3 - Chest Belters (the rock chicks!)
M - We struggle for numbers with the male section, so this is a generic male range, nothing too high and nothing really low - old fashioned Bari range.

The Rose - Soloist Vocal with Choir

Theatre Creative - a rather pretentious title for someone who dabbles in acting, singing, arranging, MDing, creating production shows and cabarets and generally immersing himself in all things theatrical and musical.
