Alan Jay Lerner
(born Aug. 31, 1918, New York, N.Y., U.S. - died June 14, 1986, New York City) U.S. librettist and lyricist. Born to a prosperous retailing family, he studied at Juilliard and Harvard. He wrote more than 500 radio scripts between 1940 and 1942, the year he met the composer Frederick Loewe. The two began collaborating, and their first Broadway success came with Brigadoon (1947; film, 1954). It was followed by Paint Your Wagon (1951; film, 1969). My Fair Lady (1956) was an unprecedented triumph, setting a record for the longest original run of any musical; the film version (1964) won seven Academy Awards. Their film musical Gigi (1958) received nine Academy Awards. Camelot followed in 1960 (film, 1967). Lerner also collaborated with Kurt Weill (Love Life, 1948) and Burton Lane (On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, 1965; film, 1970), among others. His film scripts include An American in Paris (1951, Academy Award). Media Articles |

Lerner, Frederick Loewe/Greg Gilpin (Broadway/Movies) The key word in this title is "danced." And what says "dance" more than "disco?"

Get out your platform shoes, leisure suits, and sing and dance it all night.

Recorded by New York Voices on their album A Day Like This, this contemporary swing arrangement offers superb, challenging vocal jazz writing.
Arranger: Darmon Meader | Composer: Burton Lane | Lyricist: Alan Jay Lerner Performed By: New York Voices | Musical: On a Clear Day You Can See Forever
Kirby Shaw's samba treatment of this stage and screen standard is truly unique! Despite the brisk tempo, held notes lock in tight vocal jazz chords, and a few staggered entrances provide textural interest. After a signature add-on stacks the voices into three independent layers, the arrangement clears the way for a syncopated scat riff at the end of the coda. SoundPax includes four horns and rhythm.

Bing Crosby, Doris Day, Nat King Cole, Peggy Lee, and Harry Connick Jr. are just a few of the artists who have recorded this showtune-turned-standard by American songwriting team Lerner and Loewe. Buoyant syncopations lightly swing through sweet jazz sonorities and arrive at a tender tempo-stretching final cadence. Mark Hayesi divisi a cappella arrangement is equally fitting for concert, show, and jazz choirs. A treasure from My Fair Lady.
