Summertime by Ira Gershwin Chamber Music - Digital Sheet Music

By George Gershwin

Summertime by Gershwin for string orchestra or string quartet. This famous jazz standard begins with a mysterious opening and a recognizable bass line. Students will be challenged as the chart continues blending counter melodies, pulsing eighth notes, and flashy minor scales. An epic cinematic section gives a break from the groove and leads into an ominous pizzicato section and a haunting legato statement of the melody. Original material in the bridge allows students to be exposed to jazz harmonies with common tones, and the chart concludes with the original pulsing groove and another cinematic build to the finish line.Arranged by Travis Patton. www.travispatton.com
