Superb Vocal Accompaniment
This arrangement of 'Day in the Life of a Fool' in G minor is beautifully crafted for a vocal solo with jazz ensemble. Jerry Nowak's accompaniment lines are smooth and perfectly support the singer without overpowering. The piano part, part of the full score and parts set, lays out great harmonic interest, making it ideal for vocal coaching and performance preparation.

Reliable Jazz Standard Chart
Another quality chart from Jerry Nowak. This 'Day in the Life of a Fool' jazz ensemble arrangement is exactly what you need for professional gigs. The medium tempo Bossa feel is authentic, and the arrangement is standard enough to fit most vocalists. Parts are well-laid out, and I expect clear chord symbols for quick reads. A solid addition to the book.
