Blame It On My Youth

$65.00

Description

An SSATB arrangement of the classic ballad for advanced vocal jazz ensembles, based loosely on the recording by Carmen McRae and inspired by the writing style of Phil Mattson. (One bari/bass split appears at the end and may be omitted.)

A female soloist is featured at the beginning, during the middle of the 1st verse, and at the very end. Crunchy turns of harmony abound — lots of extended chords, #9 dissonances, and mid-verse key and texture shifting to keep your ears engaged. The piano solo after the first verse can be replaced with a vocal or instrumental solo. (A sample solo is written out for pianists who need it; chords are indicated.)

Contents:
A vocal / piano / bass score
Vocal-only reproducible chart
Bass chart with chords (can be used for any rhythm section player that reads chord symbols)
Drum map (without those pesky chords)
Written-out piano part for accompanists who aren’t used to comping chords!

This chart is published through Sheet Music Plus.
