"Almost Like Being in Love" - This Lerner and Loewe hit is an American classic. It is set here as an updated a cappella version by Darmon Meader for the New York Voices - an amazing vocal jazz arrangement not to be missed. Beginning with solo and backing vocals, it soon takes off in a bright, happy bounce. "Tenderly" - Surround your audience in a tapestry of sound with this a cappella ballad setting of the great American standard from 1946. The jazz vocals are relatively accessible, but offer plenty of opportunities to develop blend, style and intonation. Wonderful competition piece or as an encore for a concert choir! "Never Let Me Go" - Made famous by the legendary Dinah Washington, this deeply expressive standard is richly arranged for unaccompanied jazz choir. Expanded ranges and divisi provide challenge, but offer rewards for the advanced group. "My One and Only Love" - Beautiful a cappella textures shape this classic Sinatra ballad into a fantastic vocal jazz showpiece! From full homophonic harmonies to solo lines with vocal accompaniment, this setting is a compelling spectrum of sound. |
