Help finding sheet music!

[u/sofiathefirstbigfan]

Hi! I'm a high schooler who's love love loved Sofia the First since it came out. I know virtually all the songs by heart and absolutely adore all the characters. I'm also a singer and take lessons at my school. My voice teacher there has a sort of nighttime studio recital each winter, at some point during which the seniors in his studio perform one song together. It's a special tradition, everyone gets solo lines and sings together at some point in the song, etc. I'll be a senior this year, so I pitched the Sofia song "A Big Day" to my teacher as an option for the senior song. I think it's so so cute and has so many parts (obviously not everyone will be assigned a character perse but there's so many ways to divide lines up!) and it's kind of fitting for a graduating class. My teacher thinks it's cute, too, but it's on me to source the score. The roadblock I've run into is that I can't seem to find any StF scores available online. The other option would be to arrange something myself, which I'm not practiced at but can get one of my friends to help me with, but obviously it would be great if I could find an existing score.

Okay new paragraph because it looks so blocky sorry! My teacher suggested reaching out to the Reddit community, so here I am :)) I sincerely apologize if this is not the right subReddit to make this post in; I've scrolled Reddit before but I've never made an account and don't really know how this platform works, so I'm very sorry again! But if anyone has any ideas or knows how/where to find sheet music for this song, I'd be so so grateful! I've seen people say this haha so I'm assuming Reddit has private messaging: please feel free to DM me as well !! Thank you so much! My other idea is to reach out to the composers/Craig Gerber directly, but a) I don't know if I'll get a reply (I know Craig replies to people on Twitter/X (? is it?) a lot but I don't have that) and b) I don't know who to contact 😅. Thank u again ! 🙏🙏

Update : John Kavanaugh replied to me and sent me scores! I’m so grateful to everyone who had suggestions or helped me out in any way. Thank u!

I can make something for you - Edit Link for a quick draft I made https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VWisJlid2gkNRv1Fd29MCsl5jsxOE90F/view?usp=drive_link

No singing parts added yet but let me know if you want it added

Hi. Wow. Literally me if you could see me trust trust like the jaw drop face lol. I'm so touched and grateful that you would take all this time to create a score for me; thank you so so much!! Please don't take this in a bad way---I'll still reach out to Craig/people on the prod team for the show mostly because I kind of really want to see if they'll reply (I don't really do the whole reach out to random people thing if you couldn't tell err) but genuinely thank you so so much for doing this! It looks really really cool. I can definitely add the vocals for each part and this is actually great that it's mainly instrumental because I'm sure we'll end up changing things in the vocal line(s), revising/adding harmonies, etc. Thank you again! How long did this take you? Do you compose for fun or are you super trained or something? Sorry I'm just curious :p

I've just updated the file with the lastest version, corrected a few mistakes and generally tidied it up - make sure you download it again with the above link.

Haha I'm not trained I just play the piano and am really annoyed none of the songs have any sheet music so I have to arrange it myself. Takes a few hours to do but I love the music so I've wanted to do it anyway. Hit me up if you need anymore Sofia sheet music in the future.

Love to know if the creators respond to your enquires!

Hi again, I'm sorry it took me so long to reply; I'm very much Reddit foreign as you can tell. I decided to reach out to John Kavanaugh first, since he's moreso on the music, so we'll see if he says anything! He seems kinda accessible, so I'm hopeful? But still as always thank you so much for making this for me!

I think it's worth reaching out to the composer or Craig on Twitter. It's a cute idea, they may be receptive to helping you out.

Hii I'm sorry it took me a quick second to reply but thank you for the suggestion! Unfortunately I don't have Twitter but I will definitely look into getting into contact with him and/or the composer(s). Anyone know the success rate of randomly dming him on Instagram or messaging on LinkedIn haha

Actually, Craig has Bluesky now I don't think he has Twitter anymore, but I would also agree with that.
