Autumn Leaves [Signature] (for Viola and Piano)

Joseph Kosma  

Joseph Kosma’s timeless jazz standard “Autumn Leaves [Signature]” is presented here in a stylish duo arrangement for solo instrument and piano. The arrangement begins with a relatively slow and expressive introduction, setting a reflective atmosphere before transitioning into a swing style built on a walking bass foundation. This change of character brings a lively jazz groove while preserving the lyrical beauty of the melody. The main theme appears twice, allowing performers to explore phrasing and expressive variation throughout the piece. The piano accompaniment shapes the rhythmic drive of the swing style while supporting the melodic line with rich harmonic color. This signature arrangement offers a fresh chamber interpretation suitable for recitals, jazz-themed concerts, and crossover programs. The required positions extend up to 4th position for violin, 1st position for viola, and thumb position for cello, providing expressive range and rhythmic vitality.
