From Porgy and Bess. Composed by Dorothy Heyward, Du Bose Heyward, George Gershwin, and Ira Gershwin. Arranged by Mac Huff. Broadway Choral. Broadway, Musicals, Show Choir, Standards, Thirties. Octavo. 12 pages. Published by Hal Leonard (HL.139649).UPC: 888680038267. 6.75x10.5 inches.
One of the most treasured songs of all time, Gershwin's highly evocative writing mixes elements of jazz with artsong to create a masterwork of the 20th century. This tasteful choral setting weaves the melody through different voices with wordless choral textures, forming a rich backdrop of sound. Starting rubato, a full dynamic range and a dramatic piano accompaniment add to the emotion.
