Big band (Alto Saxophone Soloist, 2 Alto Saxophones, 2 Tenor Saxophones, Baritone Saxophone, 4 Trumpets, 4 Trombones, Guitar, Piano, Bass, Drums) - Medium

SKU: JL.JLP-8294

By The American Jazz Orchestra. Edited by Jeffrey Sultanof and Rob Duboff. Arranged by Benny Carter. Ballad. Score and parts. Published by Jazz Lines Publications (JL.JLP-8294).

Benny Carter originally wrote this melody in 1960 for inclusion on his Further Definitions album (it was originally titled Blue Star). In 1992 he took the tune and created this big band arrangement as an alto sax feature. This is a fairly straight-forward arrangement that would be perfect for a less-experienced band to feature a guest soloist. There are no saxophone doubles. Ranges: Trumpet 1: to B5 Trombone 1: to G4.
