Default If Ever I Would Leave You Duet

"If Ever I Would Leave You" was written by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Lowe in 1960 for the Broadway Musical, "Camelot".

In measures 28 and 31, you will see what we called "railroad tracks", the two slashes. There is no Hold (fermata) associated with the first - you can pause there ever so briefly if it feels right to you. For the second one in measure 31, there is a fermata and it is directly over the double slashes. The intent here is pause while you are taking your breath. Then, the tempo resumes at 80 beats per measure, a little slower than the rest of the piece.

Part of the bridge, measures 21-26, are quite challenging for me to play in the Alto part, but I will work with it and make the arranger (me) happy.

Ralph Rayner
