Yesterday by The Beatles Jazz Ensemble - Digital Sheet Music

By John Lennon

"Yesterday" is a song by English rock band the Beatles written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon–McCartney) and first released on the album Help! in the United Kingdom in August 1965. McCartney composed the entire melody in a dream one night in his room, and upon waking, he hurried to a piano and played the tune to avoid forgetting it. McCartney's initial concern was that he had subconsciously plagiarised someone else's work. As he put it, "For about a month I went round to people in the music business and asked them whether they had ever heard it before. Eventually it became like handing something in to the police. I thought if no one claimed it after a few weeks then I could have it." I have arranged the melody here as a solo trombone feature which has been successfully performed in concert many times.

Took a punt on this one and glad I did. Really nice, with the right soloist.
