Composed by K W Gemmell. Jazz,Blues,Swing,Repertoire. Score,Set of Parts. 11 pages. Published by Keith Gemmell (S0.74935).Add a touch of blues to your string quartet repertoire with this lazy ‘ole’ tune in the style of early Duke Ellington, at the time he was playing New York’s Cotton Club. In this type of number, Ellington typically used three clarinets playing a harmonised melody, which is why this tune, Harlem Love Call, works well with a string quartet, the three clarinets being replaced by violin 1, violin 2 and viola. The cello plays a busy supporting role and propel everything along.Play it in a lazy fashion and bend a few notes here and there if you wish. It’s that kind of piece. Note that it starts quietly at A and increases in volume through B and C. It quietens down at D and E is quieter still (pianissimo) through to the end.
