EASY TO LOVE - Free Jazz Leadsheet

"easy to love" was composed by Cole Porter in 1934 for the musical "Anything Goes." The song expresses admiration and romantic allure, featuring Porter’s signature sophisticated harmony and lyrical melody.

The first notable recording was by Bing Crosby in New York, accompanied by orchestra. Over the years, artists such as Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, and jazz instrumentalists have performed it, solidifying its place as a standard.

The piece follows a 32-bar AABA form with elegant melodic lines, providing ample opportunities for phrasing, improvisation, and ensemble interaction.
