More about this title

Why we love this

This sophisticated standard works beautifully in intimate performance settings where the piano and voice can breathe together. The chord symbols give you flexibility to arrange for different ensemble sizes or to adapt the accompaniment to your venue and accompanist's strengths.

What to expect

Elegant and introspective, this piece carries the warmth of a conversation about devotion and continuity. The harmonic language is lush and mature, asking both singer and accompanist to listen closely and support each other's phrasing.

Who it's for

Vocalists preparing a recital or cabaret program, singers working with a collaborative pianist, and voice teachers seeking quality standards that bridge classical training and contemporary interpretation.

How to get the most out of it

  • Balance the vocal line so it sits naturally over the piano without forcing projection; let the lyrics carry the intimacy of the song.
  • Shape the harmonic progression by listening to how the chords support the melody rather than playing them mechanically.
  • Take time during rehearsal to coordinate rubato between voice and piano, especially in the lyrical sections.

How to use it

Place this in a set of American standards for a recital program, pair it with other mid-century songs for a cabaret-style concert, or use it as a showcase piece for advanced voice students working on legit interpretation and musical maturity.

Skills your students will build

  • Coordinate phrasing and rubato between voice and piano
  • Interpret jazz and popular song harmony
  • Shape long, legit vocal lines with musical sensitivity
  • Read and realize chord symbols for flexible accompaniment
