Composed by Jimmy McHugh. Arranged by David Leech. Contemporary. 67 pages. David Leech #4747745. Published by David Leech (A0.973272).This song, long a part of the Great American Songbook, was composed by McHugh and Fields in 1930 and has since become a jazz standard. Recorded numerous times by everybody from Louis Armstrong to Dave Brubeck, it was a big hit for Tommy Dorsey in 1945. This arrangement was inspired by the 1957 Dizzy Gillispie version from his album Sonny Side Up, featuring tenor giants Sonny Rollins and Sonny Stitt.
Instrumentation is the standard big band: five saxes (a,a,t,t,b), five trumpets, four trombones, guitar, piano, bass & drums.
The first tenor has a 32 bar ad lib solo on the second chorus.
Brass parts are pretty high, particularly in the last 16 bars, where the first trumpet stays above the staff, going up to a high F#.
