Errata
Some newer editions may already have these corrections.
- 8, take some time.
- 15, there should be a crescendo on the shouted letters. I prefer for the accompanist to shout these letters.
- 49, it’s back to the jazz eights.
- 54, all of the soprano notes in the duo version can be Gs. Or the last two notes can be Gs. Or it can be sung as published.
- There are many versions of this piece, with minor changes being made quite frequently to the piano part. The current edition is the one I prefer.
