Overjoyed by Stevie Wonder Jazz Ensemble - Digital Sheet Music
By Stevie WonderThis professional arrangement of Stevie Wonder’s "Overjoyed" is scored for a 9-piece band, featuring a full rhythm section, a lush four-piece saxophone section (2 Altos and 2 Tenors), and a solo vocalist. It expertly bridges the gap between the 1985 original and modern R&B/jazz, offering a sophisticated, ensemble-driven sound.Designed for intermediate to advanced performers, the arrangement maintains the iconic melody while introducing rich jazz substitutions, 9th/13th chord voicings, and a polished, syncopated R&B "flair." The dual alto and tenor saxes provide a powerful, wide-voiced harmonic foundation that adds contemporary depth and professional texture to the classic ballad.
