Summary of This Sheet Music
When Charlie Parker popularized the "with strings" aesthetic, many jazz musicians discovered how lush strings could expand the expressive palette without ever restricting improvisation. This sheet music follows that tradition: it highlights melody, lyricism, and harmonic color while preserving the energy and freedom of the jazz language.
You will find 10 standards beautifully arranged by Lennie Niehaus, with particular attention to transitions, voice leading, and the balance between the rhythm section and strings. The result: a rich and inspiring framework to work on creativity, refine intonation, and perfect rhythmic placement, whether in study, rehearsal, or performance.
The accompaniment features a solid rhythm section with Steve Allee (piano), Tyrone Wheeler (bass), and Steve Davis (drums), complemented by Peter McHugh (violins) and Alan Oldfield (synth strings). The included repertoire: "I Cover The Waterfront," "Fools Rush In," "You Go To My Head," "September In The Rain," "You're My Everything," "You & The Night & The Music," "Autumn In New York," "When Your Lover Has Gone," "Namely You," "Lover, Come Back To Me."
