Jazz choir (SATB choir with flute, piano, bass and drums) - Level 2

SKU: NC.VJ1279

Arranged by Craig Strain. Ideal For Young Bands/Choirs, Gospel, Jazz. Set of 16 octavos with rhythm parts. Published by UNC Jazz Press (NC.VJ1279).

(Level 2) Based on a beautiful traditional melody also known as The Gift of Love and recently recorded by James Taylor, this setting begins and ends with a solo voice written for tenor but is equally effective with a female voice. Special care was taken while applying the subtle 16th-note syncopation with its gospel implication and the rich four-voice harmonization in order to enhance the beauty of this classic melody without disrupting its soul. For pure beauty, you won't beat this arrangement. SATB with flute, piano, bass and drums.
