    Default I Wish It So - Marc Blitzstein

    I Wish It So is the beautiful surviving tune from Marc Blitzstein's unsuccessful 1959 musical Juno, based on Sean O'Casey's play Juno and the Paycock.

    There's a beautiful rendition of the original by Dawn Upshaw, but I haven't tried to preserve that harmony.

    If anyone wants a copy of Blitzstein's original piano score, send me a PM and I'll email it to you in a PDF.

    Meanwhile, I've rearranged the tune with jazz changes and cut the intro and outro.

    The score for my arrangement is at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ur4...Ew0XtvF2_/view.
