彼が書いた曲では "Alone Together" (1932), "By Myself" (1937), "Dancing in the Dark" (1931), "You and the Night and the Music" (1934) 等が大スタンダード曲となっていて、皆さんもよくお耳にしていらっしゃるでしょう。
彼は作詞家としてハワード・ディーツと組み、多くの曲を生み出していますが、他にも作詞家として E. Y. Harburg, Al Stillman, Laurence Stallings, Dorothy Fields, Frank Loesser, Leo Robin 等とも組み、曲を生み出しています。
アーサー・シュワルツは、アレック・ワイルダーが書いた批評本 American Popular Song: The Great Innovators, 1900-1950 の中で、 8. Vincent Youmans (1898-1946) and Arthur Schwartz (1900-1984) として1章を割かれています。
----------------------------- アーサー・シュワルツは素晴らしい曲を書いた。最高の劇場音楽のような個性と筋がある。どの曲も、当時のアメリカのミュージカルの雰囲気以外には関心がない。シュワルツは、ヨーロッパ、オペレッタ、コンサートホールに肩入れすることはなかった。シュワルツは、完全な自己肯定感と高い専門的技術をもって作曲し、決して道端にたたずんで音楽的に青々とした文化の草原を憧れのまなざしで見つめることはなかった。彼は袖をまくって仕事に向かった。 唯一の謎は、彼がもっと多くの作品を残さなかったことだ。1926年に初登場し、196O年代初頭には、たとえ売れないショーであったとしても、まだ素晴らしい曲を書き続けていた作家なら、彼以上に素晴らしい曲を書いていただろうと推測される。しかし、この検証を進めていくと、彼の最高傑作が発表されるまでに、つまり、30代前半に最初の大作が発表された後に、奇妙な時間差があることに気づくだろう。まるで、他のことをするために音楽活動を中断したかのようだ。 1926年に "The Grand Street Follies "のために書いたとはいえ、彼の歌の中で最初に世間の注目を集めたのは、1929年のレヴュー "The Little Show "に収録されたI Guess I'll Have To Change My Plansだった。この曲は、ハワード・ディーツによる歌詞の第2節にある一節から、「青いパジャマの歌」として知られるようになった: 「なぜ青いパジャマを買ったのだろう? (後略) -----------------------------
これだけの大スタンダード曲を生み出してきたアーサー・シュワルツなのですが、彼の曲を扱ったソングブック・アルバムが思いのほか少ないのです。 彼のソングブック・アルバムを掘り起こして reserved album にリストアップしてあるものも、LPレコードしかなかったり、CD化されていてもコンピレイション・アルバムのような印象を受けるものが目立ち、他のソングブック・シリーズのように、歌手が歌っていて、歌詞が聴けるものが非常に少ないように思えます。

In the night, though we're apart
There's a ghost of you within my haunted heart
Ghost of you, my lost romance
Lips that laugh, eyes that dance
Haunted heart won't let me be
Dreams repeat, a sweet but lonely song to me
Dreams are dust, it's you who must belong to me
And thrill my haunted heart
Be still, my haunted heart
Time rolls on, trying in vain to cure me
You are gone, but you remain to lure me
You're there in the dark but I will call
You're there but you're not there at all
Oh what will I do
Without you
Without you
Met a gal in calico
Down in Santa Fe
Used to be her Sunday beau
'Til I rode away
Do I want her
Do I want her love - yes, siree
Will I win her
Will I win her love - wait and see
Workin' with the rodeo
Rode from town to town
Seen most every kinda gal
Every kind of gown
But who makes my heart sing
Yipee yi, yipee yo -
My little gal in calico
I'll take my gal in calico
Down in Santa Fe
Guess I better let her know
That I feel this way
Is she waitin' (is she waitin')
Aw, she'd better be
Am I hopin' to be ropin' her
Yes siree

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Little_Show
[Verse 1]
I guess I'll have to change my plan
I should have realized there'd be another man
I overlooked that point completely
Until the big affair began
Before I knew where I was at
I found myself upon the shelf and that was that
I tried to reach the moon, but when I got there
All that I could get was the air
My feet are back upon the ground
I've lost the one girl I'd found
[Verse 2]
I guess I'll have to change my plan
I should have realized there'd be another man
Why did I buy those blue pajamas
Before that big affair began?
My boiling point is much too low
For me to try to be a fly Lothario
I think I'll crawl right back and into my shell
Dwelling in my personal hell
I'll have to change my plan around
I've lost the one girl I'd found

You marched away and left this town
As empty as can be
I can't sit under the apple tree
With anyone else but me
For there is no secret lover
That the draft board didn't discover
They're either too young or too old
They're either too grey or too grassy green
The pickings are poor and the crop is lean
What's good is in the army
What's left will never harm me
I'm either their first breath of spring
Or I'm their last little fling
I must confess to one romance
I(m sure you will allow
He tries to serenade me
But his voice is changing now
I'm finding it easy to stay good as gold
They're either too young or too old
I'll never ever fail ya, when you are in Australia
And flying over Egypt, your heart will never by gypped
And when you get to India, I'll still be what I've been to ya
I've looked the field over, and lo and behold!
They're either too young or too old

How sweet you are, how sweet you are
How dear your tenderly smiling face
Through days all bitter and gray and grim
Through nights when even the stars are dim
How sweet to know my heart can glow
From just the warmth of our first embrace
The world's a lovelier world by far
When I remember how sweet you are
Through days all bitter and gray and grim
Through nights when even the stars are dim
How sweet to know my heart can glow
From just the warmth of our first embrace
The world's a lovelier world by far
When I remember how sweet you are

You think I don't love you,
Oh, but I do!
How can I show that I do?
You think I don't get blue,
Oh, but I do!
Though I get light hearted too.
First Im singing then Im sighing
Then Im flying high above.
You think I don't know why,
Oh, but I do!
I know that it's you I love.
I wondered what this room would be like
Pictured many a tryst here
Wondered what his girls would be like
And how many he's kissed here
I don’t care what all this is like
Little have I missed here
Oh, Anatol
Listen to me, Anatol
You've had most everything
But I bring to you
Something you never had before
A kind of love that's deep
And will keep forever new
Something you never had before
You’ve had gay lovе before
Come-what-may lovе before
You've had dancing-a-waltz love
And false love before
But now your life can start
For I bring a heart that's true
Something you never had before
You might also like
You Will Never Be Lonely
I know the art of keeping house
From the cellar to the dome
But will this art be art enough
To keep this particular man at home?
I know the art of cookery
He'll rave about my soufflé
But will this art be art enough
To keep him from drifting away?
And when we bid the world goodnight
And together we climb the stair
Oh, will I have the art enough
The art that is needed there?
I want to be wanted there
The kind of love that's deep
And will keep forever new
Something you never had before
You've had light love before
For-the-night love before
You've had carefree heigh-ho love
And no love before
But now your life can start
For I bring a heart that's true
Something you never had before!

Oh, give me something to remember you by
When you are far away from me
Just a little something, meaning love cannot die
No matter where you chance to be
So I'll pray for you, night and day for you
It will see me through like a charm 'til you return
So give me something I can remember you by
When you are far away from me
So I'll pray for you, every single day for you
It will see me through like a charm until you return
Give me something, something to remember you by
When you are far away from me

Everything that happens in life
Can happen in a show;
You can make 'em laugh,
You can make 'em cry,
Anything, anything can go!
The clown
With his pants falling down,
Or the dance
That's a dream of romance,
Or the scene
Where the villain is mean,
That's entertainment!
The lights
On the lady in tights,
Or the bride
With the guy on the side,
Or the ball
Where she gives him a her all,
That's entertainment!
The plot can be hot, simply teeming with sex,
A gay divorcee who is after her ex,
It could be Oedipus Rex,
Where a chap kills his father,
And causes a lot of bother.
The clerk
Who is thrown out of work
By the boss
Who is thrown for a loss
By the skirt
Who is doing him dirt,
The world is a stage,
The stage is a world of entertainment!
The doubt
While the jury is out,
Or the thrill
When they're reading the will,
Or the chase
For the man with the face,
That's entertainment!
The dame
Who is known as the flame,
Or the king
Of an underworld ring,
He's an ape
Who won't let her escape,
That's entertainment!
It might be a fight like you see on the screen,
A swain getting slain for the love of a queen,
Some great Shakespearean scene,
Where a ghost and a prince meet,
And everyone ends in mincemeat.
The gang
May be waving the flag
That began
With a Mister Cohan,
Hip hooray!
The American way,
The world is a stage,
The stage is a world of entertainment.

[Verse 1]
High and low, low and high
I've been looking for you
You've been hiding or you'd have come to me
My oh me, me oh my
No investigator ever made a greater discovery
I can't tell you what excitement
That night meant when I met you
And what wrong or right meant
Our hearts only knew
I was low, now I'm high
High upon a steeple
Telling all the people you've come to me

High and low, low and high

How I love a glass of beer
Beer goes very good with beer
When I'm drinking beer I'm thinking, ach! life is dear
But there's someone I love even more than beer
I love Louisa, Louisa loves me
When we rode on the merry-go-round
I kissed Louisa and then Louisa, Louisa kissed me
We were so happy, so happy and free
Ach, ach, but she's a
Beautiful Louisa
Ach, when I choose them
I never want to lose them
Someday Louisa, Louisa will be
More than just a Fräulein to me
A Frenchman loves a glass of wein
The English think that whiskey's fine
And when I comb off, all the foam off I drink a toast
To the Germans and the Mädchen I loved most
Ich liebe Louisa, Louisa liebt mich
Wenn wir auf das Ringelspiel
Ich küsste Louisa
Und dann Louisa, Louisa küsste mich
Wir sind so glücklich, so glücklich sind wir
Ach, ach, but she's a
Beautiful Louisa
Ach, when I choose them
I never want to lose them
Ach, ach, but she's a
Beautiful Louisa
Ach, when I choose them
I never want to lose them
Someday Louisa, Louisa will be
More als just a Fräulein to me
More beer!
More beer!
More beer!

If there is someone lovelier than you
Then I am blind, a man without a mind
If there is someone lovelier than you
But no, I'm not blind, my eyes have traveled everywhere
In hopes that I might find, a creature half so fair
If there is someone lovelier than you
By all that's beautiful, such beauty can't be true!
If there is someone lovelier than you
By all that's beautiful, such beauty can't be true!

Love is a dancing thing,
Gay as a May Day,
I'm in the heighday of it!
Love is a dancing thing,
It's dancing my light heart away.
When this entrancing thing
Came like a Spring song,
I heard the singsong of it;
Love is a dancing thing,
Romancing my light heart away.

I don't want the rainbow's end;
I don't need another friend;
After all, you're all I'm after now
I won't care what comes my way
If I share your love each day
After all, you're all I'm after now, sweetheart
I don't want a million, dear
For it is plain to see
You're one in a million, dear
And you're the one for me
I don't crave the hall of fame
But I'll slave to change your name
After all, you're all I'm after now

Whadda they do on a rainy night in Rio?
Whadda they do when there is no starry sky?
Where do they go when they can't go for a walk?
Do they sit at home and talk
Or do they sit and sigh, "Aye Aye!"?
Where do they woo on a rainy night in Rio?
How can a guy meet a sweetheart by the sea?
Maybe the girl wants a tender kiss, and yet
How tender can you get
When you're beneath a wet palm tree?
Whadda they do in Mississippi
When skies are drippy?
And whadda they do when it's murky
In Alberquerque?
And whadda they do in Old Arkoona
When the moon above ain't bright?
Well, that's what they do in Rio
On a rainy night!
But whadda they do when skies are dreary
Along Lake erie?
And whadda they do in St Louis
When nights are dewy?
And whadda they do in Colorado
When a shadow dims the light?
Well, that's what they do in Rio
On a rainy night!
Yes, that's what they do in Rio
On a rainy night!
