TTBB Version of the great song by Gorni Kramer.

The arrangement is quite basic and is not barbershop like: there is one voice for the main melody (Tenor1) and three voices emulating the armonic infrastructure.

(I made also a richer SAATTB version with additional staffs taken from a Pasquale Amico vocal arrangement).

TTBB voices follow a simple arrangement: Soprano does the main melody and Tenor, Baritone and Bass do accompaniment: an easy bass line and two voices for the chords.

Baritone and Bass often play upbeat in the first bars of most of the phrases (pretending to be guitars or trumpets) and turn to straight beat in the final measures.

Tempo is fast, thus singing those upbeat at the right speed can be challenging: bear in mind slowing them down produces a global weakening of the entire song: I suggest Tenor2 and Baritone drink some coffee before singing...

To add movement to an otherwise great and funny but simple structure, I added few bars to the original work, starting from bar 79 (F mark); here, pay attention to sing in sync, since the section is very rhythmic.


Some background information about the song: written in 1939 under the fascist regime, Kramer was accused of making fun of the fascist hierarch Achille Starace, who used to walk upright in a black shirt, arousing the hilarity of the population. The song thus had to face the censorship of the regime, given that the allusion appeared quite clear.

Many years after the composition, Gorni Kramer declared that the piece was inspired not by Starace but by the maestro Pippo Barzizza, with whom, in 1939, Kramer had had an argument during a performance at the Kursaal in Viareggio.

Composed by Frank Loesser and Hoagy Carmichael. Arranged by Antony Currington. 20th Century,A Cappella,Barbershop,Film/TV. 5 pages. Antony Currington #973091. Published by Antony Currington (A0.1389503).

Originally performed by Bob Hope and Shirley Ross, this song tells of a young couple in love, who despite being sleepy, sit up together until dawn because they do not want to say good night and part. A fun little swing tune from the 1930's, this song has been recorded by many people including Fats Waller and Art Garfunkle. This arrangement is done in the barbershop style for men's quartets or choruses (TTBB), and should be suitable for a barbershop contest performance.
