Jazz choir (SATB choir with rhythm section) - Level 4

SKU: NC.VJ2396

Composed by Dori Caymmi. Arranged by Mike Dana. Bossa Nova, Brazilian. Set of 16 octavos with rhythm parts. Published by UNC Jazz Press (NC.VJ2396).

(Level IV) Like A Lover, arr by Mike Dana is another title by Brazilian composer Dori Caymmi who's haunting melody and harmonic surprises are beautifully captured in this arrangement of Like A Lover (O Cantador.) This medium bossa chart opens with a simple two-part vocal texture over light piano/guitar chords, then modulates for the bridge and solo sections, and again for the final verse. Sophisticated voicings in both the vocal writing and rhythm section are used throughout. A brief improvised section can be taken by an instrumental or vocal soloist. This chart will work well for good high school through university level vocal ensembles. SATB with rhythm section.
