I Love You Truly is based on the 1906 hit pop song by Carrie Jacobs-Bond; a song which was the #1 wedding song for over 50 years. I have created an arrangement with 4 variations with each variation getting further from the original theme and each progressing further into jazz. Variation I - I utilize rich chords of the ballads of that period while keeping the sung melody close to the original. Variation II - I rhythmically augment the melody, simplify the texture, and add chromatic passing tones and progressions. Variation III - I set this in stride jazz with syncopated riffing in the melody. Variation IV - I make this one a slower, bolder jazz with various triplet patterns on fragments of melody and a strong jazz chord progression based on fifths. This is a gentle jazzy update to the most popular wedding song of all time; perfect for any wedding today, whether vintage or modern. 7 page score; 3:00 minutesI have published it in 3 different vocal ranges on this site: High - middle C to high G; Medium - low A to high E; Low - low G to high D. The MP3 recording is of the Medium Voice version. Vocal part is Intermediate level, while Piano part is Advanced Intermediate level. This piece is also found in my book, Vintage Wedding Songs, a collection of 5 songs which is also available on this site.
