Ceora by Lee Morgan

June 12, 2010 in Jazz Standards

This is a great little jazz original by Lee Morgan. It’s in the Real Book, and is a great bossa nova, but it’s a bit tricky. The melody in the Real Book on measure 32 is correct, but they play it ONLY ON THE LAST TIME THROUGH. The first time through the head, the band plays a simpler version of the melody on the last bar. Listen, and you’ll understand. Enjoy!
