This arrangement is closer to the Bobby Darin version than the original ThreePenny Opera arrangement, and that was PERFECT for me. I printed this in the default key of C (the original key in ThreePenny Opera) because it worked better for my range, but if you want it in Bobby Darins key, just transpose it to Bb maj.

I love this song and this arrangement does a good job of capturing the easy sashay sound of this piece. This would be a straightforward intermediate piece if it werent for the tricky rhythm of the left hand (which is where you get the wonderful beat) being a little hard to master.
This would be a good crowd pleaser. I would recommend it!

Great Number! This is the bobby Darin version if you get it in b flat. Only one incorrect chord symbol near the end of the song: this is a good buy!!!

This is quite accurate to the actual song by Bobby Darin. I saw that other review that said this is a more jazzy version of this song. That is not true. Go listen to bobby darin singing this. It is the same performance he did. That review was prob thinking of some other singer than

Its an all right arrangement. This is the jazzy version, not the original.
