Music Hall Medley

A splendid medley of songs made famous in the music halls comprising 'Put on your tat-ta little girlie', 'I'll be your sweetheart', 'Danny Boy', 'After the ball', 'She was one of the early birds', 'Somebody stole my gal', 'I do like to be beside the seaside', 'Oh, Oh, Antonio', 'Daisy Bell', 'Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow', 'Let's all go down the Strand', 'Lily of Laguna' and 'It's a long way to Tipperary' . . . . . . . Phew!
This medley can be performed by choir with a piano accompaniment or, if you just happen to have a full concert orchestra hanging around, they can accompany you instead. The orchestral score and parts are available in our Goodmusic Concert Pops series (see under GMCP016 for full details).
Your audience, should you be lucky enough to have one, can join in all the choruses they know and love!
There are two short instrumental sections in this medley (bars 21 to 52 and bars 99 to 130) which may be cut if you are performing it with just a piano and you want to deny your accompanist a bit of a solo spot and a little glory.
A version of this medley for male voice choir is also available (Catalogue number GM051) as well as a version for full mixed voice choir [SATB] (Catalogue number GM050) and upper voice choir (GM148).
Duration 12 minutes
