Jazz Ensemble Jazz Ensemble - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.585555 By Chick Corea. By Chick Corea. Arranged by Jeff Tincher. Jazz. Score and parts. 145 pages. Jeff Tincher #6317331. Published by Jeff Tincher (A0.585555). The Leprechaun was the first LP that I heard by Chick Corea. I fell in love with his music ever since. I especially liked Chick's music when he used a lot of instruments in his music. This song has woodwind, brass, and strings along with his combo. The Leprechaun's Dream is the finale to the masterful LP. It is an epic tune with different keys, dynamics, key signatures and tempos. His wife, Gayle Moran, did the vocals on this piece. The beginning and ending chords are amazing. This is a complex piece with beautiful harmonies. In the original key. Duration = 13:03.
