Jazz Ballads for Singers - Women's Edition: 15 Classic Standards in Custom Vocal Arrangements Women's Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780634064562)

(Vocal Collection). 15 essential standards have been given new arrangements tailor-made for singers, with alternative jazz chord changes, complete verses, introductions and singer-flattering endings. This book is in a traditional jazz format designed for improvising accompaniments, with melody line, lyrics and chords in a handwritten music engraving style. Traditional chord changes are also included, along with the alternative chords in Steve Rawlins' creative arrangements. Keys in the Women's Edition are in a generally lower range, as is customary for this style of music. The Men's Edition keys are in a medium range. The audio features a professional jazz trio of piano, bass and drums. Women's Edition includes: Autumn in New York * Do You Know What It Means to Miss New Orleans * Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye * I Could Write a Book * I Got It Bad and That Ain't Good * It Might as Well Be Spring * Just One More Chance * Lush Life * Manhattan * My Romance * Nature Boy * The Nearness of You * A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square * Solitude * Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most. Audio is accessed online using the unique code inside the book and can be streamed or downloaded. The audio files include PLAYBACK+, a multi-functional audio player that allows you to slow down audio without changing pitch, set loop points, change keys, and pan left or right.
