"With a Little Bit of Luck" was written by Frederick Loewe & Alan Jay Lerner in 1956 for the musical "My Fair Lady".
The range of this song is considerable - an octave and a sixth (C5 to A6 in the Soprano part). We were trying to decide if the A6 range is too loud and shrill for recorders, and we experimented with dropping measures 21-28 and 40-48 an octave. Our final assessment was to leave all in the original written octave - that it didn't sound as shrill when both instruments were playing.
If you would like to see the lyrics or the chords, you can use Composer commands to display them: for lyrics use qsl; for chords use qscn.
