Piano,Vocal,Voice - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1376404 By 101 Strings Orchestra. By Carolyn Leigh and Johnny Richards. Arranged by Dave Gingras and John E. Dosher. Broadway,Film/TV,Jazz,Musical/Show. Score. 3 pages. DAVID LEE GINGRAS #960948. Published by DAVID LEE GINGRAS (A0.1376404). Young at Heart is a pop standard ballad with music by Johnny Richards and lyrics by Carolyn Leigh. The song was written and published in 1953, with Leigh contributing the lyrics to what was originally a Richards instrumental called Moonbeam. Frank Sinatra was the first performer to record the song, which became a million-selling hit in late 1953 (and spilling over with popularity into 1954) where it reached the No. 2 spot in the Billboard chart. This version features a root-based chord blocking that John and I have used in a number of our arrangements. We additionally added what we think are some pretty cool left-hand fills that we hope you will like! It's a fun song and not too hard to play!
