This arrangement of 'Cry Me a River' provides a wonderfully supportive piano texture for a jazz vocalist. The accompaniment is rich and harmonically interesting without overshadowing the singer, allowing plenty of room for interpretation. As a vocal coach, I find it an excellent choice for guiding students through this iconic Arthur Hamilton ballad, fostering great collaboration within the ensemble.

I really enjoy playing this version of 'Cry Me a River' by Arthur Hamilton. The medium swing with a bluesy feel is exactly what you want for this classic torch song. Even as an adult learner, I found the piano/vocal part enjoyable and achievable to work through on weekends. It's so satisfying to bring this beautiful piece to life; it really captures the original's emotion!

This jazz ensemble arrangement of 'Cry Me a River' is a fantastic teaching tool. The engraving quality is clear, which aids significantly in sight-reading. It's a great choice for intermediate to advanced students learning jazz phrasing and rhythm, especially within a full ensemble setting. The vocal solo part is well-crafted for student vocalists, offering a wonderful opportunity for performance practice.
