The Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization today released the fourth music video in its YouTube Series, "R&H Goes Pop!" The video features Derek Klena (Anastasia), putting a modern twist on "Younger Than Springtime" from Rodgers & Hammerstein's South Pacific, featuring music direction and arrangements by Benjamin Rauhala.

""Younger Than Springtime" is about reminding yourself about the little things in life that make you happy and this timeless topic of love overcoming all obstacles regardless of place, time, or circumstance," said Derek Klena.

Derek Klena's Broadway credits include Wicked (Fiyero), The Bridges of Madison County (Michael), and Anastasia (Dmitry). This past year he played Nick Healy in Jagged Little Pill at the American Repertory Theater. He has made appearances on television series such as "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt," "Blue Bloods," and "Law & Order: SVU."
