Thanks so much for your answer. I'm new with BIAB and hope to do a good job --I'm
sure I will but it'll take a long time to learn BIAB! Frustrating when ya want
something done yesterday. lol

"Wade in the Water" is indeed a very old song and very much in the public domain. The arrangement heard in the youtube page above may be copyrighted, however.

This is a good reason to make a new arrangement in BiaB. The owners of PG Music have made it very clear that a new arrangement created in BiaB is the property of the user.

All those Bb chords are Bbm (Bb minor) chords.

For jazz version with sax, I might choose to play the Ab, Gb and F chords as 7 chords or [possibly even 9ths in places. Certain of the Band in a Box Jazz styles may just do that anyway, emulating what a Jazz Pianist might do. If the improv soloist leans towards blues scale stuff, as the Trumpet p;layer in the Eva Cassidy performance posted as example, the use of 7 and 9 chords can work very well.

Thanks, Bob. I have some videos on YouTube of some jazz standards
and paid royalties for them. I'm new at BIAB == but have learned
a few things about music business along the way and one is not to
get in legal trouble. lol

Musica,

As for using a midi backup or MP3,I was told the arranger or people
who made recording (?) owns the rights which is why I want to do it
on my own. As a last resort I might have to ask someone
to do it for me although I'd much prefer to do it myself.




I can’t offer legal advice, but I will say that it doesn’t matter who records a cover of the song, … whether it’s you or someone else, … they must have legal permission to do so. Other legalities also apply.

Quote:

Oh, and one more thing. I'm now listening to the MP3 you recommended and it is outstanding. Do you think it's possible for BIAB to do the background as well as it is on this tune?




No, I don’t. Those are studio musicians playing a specific song from sheet music for that song. Even if a computer program could replicate it, the same legal ramifications would apply.

I was simply pointing you to a possible source for your own use and edification.
