Music and lyrics by Meredith Wilson
The Story Harold Hill is a con artist who accepts a challenge to scam the people in an Iowa small town, River City. Using the premise of starting a boys band, Hill works his way into the lives of the people of River City especially the piano teacher Marian Paroo. Given the chance to escape, he comes back to face the music (of the band) and claim the heart of Marion.
