Step into the timeless swing of Harry Connick, Jr.'s We Are In Love with this dynamic arrangement for advanced SSATBaB vocal jazz ensemble. In this chart, vocalists often take on the role of the big band brass and winds, while a baritone soloist steps into Connick’s shoes to deliver this swinging love story. The ensemble shines in several key spots, taking the lead with bold and exciting harmonies.
A vocal or instrumental improv section adds a layer of spontaneity, launching the tune into a new key with a powerful sendoff from the choir. The ensemble remains engaged with energetic backgrounds, building towards an exhilarating hybrid shout section/soli section. The arrangement culminates in a huge final chorus, bringing the chart to a rousing peak before winding down to a clever and subtle finish.
Despite its swinging nature, the chart features a delightful contrast with sudden transitions to a straight-8th Afro-Cuban groove at the end of each chorus. This unique twist keeps both the singers and the audience on their toes, providing a fun and engaging listening experience.
Perfect for vocal jazz directors looking to challenge their advanced ensembles, this arrangement offers a mix of technical prowess, stylistic variety, and performance excitement.
