STREET OF DREAMS - Free Jazz Leadsheet
street of dreams, composed by Victor Young with lyrics by Sam M. Lewis in 1932, is a romantic ballad that became a popular jazz standard. Its sweeping melody and lush harmonies make it well-suited for vocal and instrumental interpretations.
The first recordings were by Bing Crosby and Wayne King, and later renditions by Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, and Chet Baker solidified its place in the repertoire.
The song follows a 32-bar AABA form with lyrical phrasing and harmonic richness, offering performers opportunities for expressive interpretation and improvisation.
