This TTBB a cappella arrangement with a tenor lead vocal is written as an homage to the beloved recording by The Marcels. It's the perfect song to introduce a high school tenor-bass ensemble to doo wop style and begs for finger snaps on beats 2 and 4. There's an optional upper harmony to go with the lead during the outro. This arrangement was originally performed by The Dreamers of Phi Mu Alpha a cappella group at Penn State University and taught completely by rote. Bass range is G2 to G3. Tenor 1 sits comfortably in falsetto on G4, F#4, and one A4. The lead and optional harmony have some Frankie Valli style melismas in the outro that range up to falsetto D5 and E5. www.thomasjwestmusic.com .
