Product Description

This arrangement is made for String Quintet, in the original key containing the original form of the musical. It's an easy arrangement that can be performed in different events and performances, having a solo voice.

With 2 violins, 1 viola and 1 cello, the arrangement would be too light so, adding the double bass, the arrangement becomes more interesting with more color.

The Secret Garden is a musical based on the 1911 novel of the same name by Frances Hodgson Burnett. The musical's script and lyrics are by Marsha Norman, with music by Lucy Simon. It premiered on Broadway in 1991 and ran for 709 performances. The story is set in the early years of the 20th century.

"The Girl I mean to be" is a powerful and inspirational song about self-discovery and empowerment. The song is a ballad about a young woman struggling to find her place in the world. She constantly feels judged and compared to others, and she's tired of feeling like she's not good enough.

However, the song's protagonist eventually realizes that she is the only one who can define who she is. She sings, "I'm the only one who knows what I want to be." She realizes that she doesn't need to change herself to please others. She is perfect the way she is.

The song ends with the protagonist declaring that she is going to be the girl she wants to be. She sings, "I'm gonna be the girl I wanna be, no matter what they say". She is determined to be herself, no matter what others think.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
