Do You Want to Know a Secret
As recorded on Kaleidoscope Eyes: Music of The Beatles, Do You Want to Know a Secret opens with an intimate vocal, bongos, pizzicato strings, and accompaniment by the woodwinds with bass clarinet providing the bass line in a relaxed 5/4. The bridge receives a reharmonization with orchestral colors. There is a brief piano solo behind the instrumental section. This is a wonderful vehicle for a soft and sensitive vocalist.
