Jazz - Retalion - 2010-12-01
So, I need to find a jazz tune for a jazz theory assignment. The assignment involves taking said tune, and applying jazz concepts to it (ex. instrumenting, rearranging, rephrasing, reharmonizing, etc.)
My problem is that I do not have much jazz experience, and do not know many jazz pieces that might work. The only criteria for choosing is
Quote:a minimum 3 chorus arrangement of a standard tune (1 chorus should be approx. 32 bars- George Gershwin, Harold Arien, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin)
So basically, I need a tune of around 32 bars, and I need to get it approved, and hand in a lead sheet for it by tomorrow. Any suggestions or help is appreciated!
Thanks!

I think this should do. It's an awesome song.
I don't get the whole 32 bars thing. The whole song? lol That's kinda short.
