Original jazz composition by Sebastian Weiss. Sebastian's music is not only cleverly put together and well-written for the voice it is also accessible for choirs at all levels.
The whole piece is constructed in a way that allows for a flexible ensemble. While the choir stands at its center, the accompaniment can be a single piano, a jazz quartet or a string orchestra with jazz quartet.
Listen to sample tracks of all four movements below.
