Summary of This Collection

This collection brings together a selection of iconic standards, widely present in jazz culture and live repertoires. You will find classics with singable melodies and rich harmonies, particularly useful for working on sight-reading, timing, and language: "Besame Mucho," "Fever," "Fly Me To The Moon (In Other Words)," "God Bless The Child," "Satin Doll," "Straight No Chaser," and "Take The 'A' Train." The variety of moods allows you to approach swing and bebop ("Perdido," "Flying Home," "Li'l Darlin'") as well as Latin and bossa sounds ("Mas Que Nada," "The Girl From Ipanema," "Sway (Quien Sera)," "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps"). Some titles offer a more blues and rhythm and blues angle, excellent for groove and energy ("Hit The Road Jack," "Jump, Jive An' Wail"), while others invite you to work on dynamics, breathing, and phrase shaping ("I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free," "I'm Getting Sentimental Over You," "Harlem Nocturne"). A relevant choice to build a solid foundation of standards, strengthen harmonic ear, and gain ease in rehearsal, ensemble, or jam session contexts.
