And All That Jazz (From Chicago)

The Just Standards Real Book contains 250 classic songs, from show tunes to jazz standards, that are the core required repertoire for musicians all over the world.

Each book in the series is extensively cross-referenced with a complete composer index, discography of suggested recorded versions for each song, a section on how to play from a fakebook, chord theory reference pages, and a section on how to create interesting chord substitutions.

And All That Jazz: Three Hits from Chicago includes And All That Jazz Roxie and When You're Good To Mama all arranged for upper voices with a straightforward piano accompaniment.   The arrangement is part of the Choral Basics series ideal for beginner choirs and for those choirs with few men or with boys whose voices are just starting to change.

Music from this academy award-winning movie is rapidly gaining popularity as it harkens back to the early jazz age and raucous life style of gangster-era Chicago. This well-scored arrangement opens with a bluesy trumpet solo and includes feature spots for all sections of the band as it winds through the hits And All That Jazz Cell Block Tango Roxie and They Both Reached for the Gun.

John Kander and Fred Ebb created a number of 20th-century show classics including Cabaret and Kiss of the Spider woman but Chicago is perhaps their greatest and best-loved show of them all. On the surface And All That Jazz is a celebration of bohemian excess of every conceivable kind. Sing the fantastic showstopping melody with great energy have a ball and relish the rich word painting. There is an underlying dark side however which shows itself at the end when Velma murders her unfaithful husband in anger. Vibrato is appropriate and a clear well-tuned brash sound that carries a mile is moreimportant than a refined classically rounded tone here. Make sure the words are exceptionally clear and above all prioritise telling the story. This piece is part of the Faber Choral Singles series offering a selection of beautifully crafted arrangements in a diversity of musical styles. From Broadway pop and folk to spirituals gospel and original works the series is arranged for 3 part choirs (soprano alto and a combined male-voice part) providing flexibility for any choir. Complete with straight-forward piano accompaniments supporting the vocal lines the Faber Choral Singles series guarantees the perfect repertoire for every occasion – so get exploring and get singing!
