Kirby Shaw : On a Slow Boat to China

Set in a medium swing, this jazz standard cooks from start to finish! Opening with unison vocals, it moves to two-part, then four-part jazz chords over a steady walking bass. The group scat chorus packs a punch and leads to a tasty modulation, final chorus and easy out for a super vocal jazz showcase. Available separately: SATB, SAB, SSA, ShowTrax CD. Rhythm Section parts available as a digital download (gtr, b, dm). Duration: ca. 3:10.

Arranger: Kirby Shaw | Composer: Frank Loesser,
