Opening Sequence (from “Songs From a New World”)

Here’s the opening number from Songs For a New World by Jason Robert Brown. From The Guide to Musical Theatre‘s synopsis: “The theme is the moment of decision, the point at which you transition from the old to the new. The change may be geographical, emotional, professional or marital but things are different than they were before. The result is neither musical play nor revue; it is closer to a theatrical song cycle, a very theatrical song cycle.”

There are modulations at 2:20, 3:45, 4:12, and 4:39.

Yolanda Adams | Never Give Up

Here’s an uplifting Yolanda Adams track, “Never Give Up” (2001), with key changes at 2:31 as well as into the bridge at 3:24.

Barbra Streisand | Fifty Percent

What better way to start off the week than with some Babs? This 2016 release features a stunning vocal throughout, and such a great song. Modulation at 3:25. Enjoy!

Liza Minnelli | Maybe This Time

Bringing you some early Liza Minnelli today, with a 1966 concert performance of “Maybe This Time” from the 1972 film Cabaret. Minelli had previously released the tune on two albums, but its feature position in the film is what gave it staying power with the public. The key change is at 1:50.
