The Beat Begins

"The Beat Begins" is the big band overture from the musical Over Here!, which opened on Broadway at the Shubert Theatre (Broadway) on March 6, 1974. Like most musical overtures, the piece is a non-lyrical medley of songs from the show. Although the Sherman Brothers, who wrote the music and lyrics for the show, are generally credited as Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman respectively and equally for both music and lyrics, it is widely regarded that Richard is the music composer and Robert, the lyricist.
