By George Shearing. By Hoagy Carmichael and Ned Washington. Arranged by Jay Dougherty. This edition: pdf, streaming. 20th Century, A Cappella, Barbershop, Jazz, Standards. 5 pages. Jay Dougherty #1169888. Published by Jay Dougherty (A0.1599191)."The Nearness of You" is a 1938 jazz standard by Hoagy Carmichael (music) and Ned Washington (lyrics), first recorded in 1938 by Glenn Miller and His Orchestra. Set for TTBB voices, this arrangement by Jay Dougherty places the melody in the second voice and preserves the original’s jazzy essence with rich, tight harmonies that ebb and flow between consonance and dissonance, creating a compelling interplay of tension and resolution. This arrangement is sure to delight performers and evoke a sense of nostalgia in listeners.
NOTE: There is a 10-copy minimum purchase set by the distributor. However, please understand that, even for a quartet, the 10-copy minimum would equate to (10 x $2.99 / 4) $7.47 per quartet member. The arranger gets only a very small percentage of the profits and you're getting great legal music for a great overall price. If you're purchasing for a chorus, you must purchase one copy per singer to remain copyright legal.
