Arranged for the Hayfield High School Jazz Ensemble, The Hayburners, “When It’s Sleepy Time Down South” comes from an obscure 1931 movie called Safe in Hell. The first covers recorded that year were those by Paul Whitman and His Orchestra with Mildred Bailey and Louis Armstrong and His Orchestra. Of the many recordings made since then, “When It’s Sleepy Time Down South” is most closely associated with Louis as his signature song. He recorded it multiple times and performed it as the opening tune for thousands of his concerts. 

- MEDIUM Difficulty
- Brass high note: Trumpet B-flat 5; Trombone G 4.

NOTE: a letter-size (8.5x11) score is included with the set; a more easily read Tabloid (11x17) score is available separately (RECOMMENDED).

With 26 years of service, Bryan Kidd retired as the Chief Composer and Arranger for The United States Navy Band, Washington, D.C.  Bryan's writing, conducting, and teaching experience range from elementary through collegiate and professional levels. Currently, he is the Composer/Arranger-in-Residence for the American Festival Pops Orchestra founded by Conductor Emeritus, Anthony Maiello, a professional ensemble affiliated with George Mason University, Fairfax, Virginia.
