The musical Annie is based on a 1924 comic strip by Harold Gray which was in turn inspired by a poem written by James Riley. The musical version was written by Thomas Meehan (book), Charles Strouse (music) and Martin Charnin (lyrics) and first appeared on Broadway in 1977 and ran for nearly 6 years. Tomorrow is a powerful, confident song, which highlights Annie's hopeful attitude, despite the hard knocks, and it demands a strong choral performance from singers. This arrangement is for 3 parts with some extra divisi at the end, and throughout the melody line could be doubled by tenor voices to bolster the sopranos. The rhythms should be slightly relaxed, almost swung on the dotted rhythms, and long notes should remain sustained and full. This arrangement would suit both adult and school mixed choirs. There is a vocal score included which will help singers avoid juggling with too many pages.
