''Notes:''<br>
As this musical concerns a [[marching band]], the orchestration for several of the numbers includes band instruments.<ref>[http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000053 "''The Music Man''"], MTI Enterprises, accessed October 11, 2013</ref><ref>[http://guidetomusicaltheatre.com/shows_m/music_man.htm "''The Music Man''"], ''The Guide to Musical Theatre'', showing a reduced orchestra arrangement, accessed October 11, 2013</ref>

"Lida Rose" and "Will I Ever Tell You", sung first separately and then simultaneously, are examples of Broadway counterpoint (songs with separate lyrics and separate melodies that harmonize and are designed to be sung together). Similarly, "Pickalittle" and "Good Night Ladies" are also sung first separately, and then in counterpoint.  Willson's counterpoint is lampooned, along with two counterpoint song pairs from [[Irving Berlin]] musicals, in the 1959 musical ''[[Little Mary Sunshine]]'', where ''three'' counterpoint songs are combined: "Playing Croquet," "Swinging" and "How Do You Do?" "Goodnight, My Someone" is the same tune, in waltz time, as the march-tempo "Seventy-six Trombones".<ref>{{cite book|author=John C.
