Big band with male vocal - Medium-difficult

SKU: JL.LL-2025

By Frank Sinatra. Edited by Jon Harpin. Arranged by Billy May. Jazz Vocal. Swing. Full score and set of parts. Published by Lush Life (JL.LL-2025).

Adapted from the original Billy May arrangement of Sinatra's Reprise recording, Luck Be A Lady kicks off with the slow, almost Colla Voce intro, which picks up into a thumping swing chart. Jon Harpin has done a remarkable job in transcribing this Sinatra classic. Everything is here - dynamics, articulations, phrasing, modulations, the works. Strings were used in the original recording, which we have re-scored into the band, to make the chart suitable for a 5,4,4,4 line-up. At 5 minutes 15 seconds this is a long chart, and makes for a great vocal feature. Lead Alto doubles Clarinet. A must for all Sinatra fans. Trumpets 1-4: E6, C6, Bb5, Bb5 Trombones 1-4: B4, A4, F4, C#4 Vocal Keys: Db/D/Eb Male Vocal: Db3 - F4.
