SKU: JL.LL-2352
By Ella Fitzgerald. Edited by Myles Collins. Arranged by Billy May. Jazz Vocal. Swing. Full score and set of parts. Published by Lush Life (JL.LL-2352).This tune was recorded by Ella for her Harold Arlen songbook album, with the original arrangement scored by Billy May. The chart has been adapted to a full 5444 line-up (from the original 5114) though the feel and flavor are true to the original. Billy May chose an innovative set of chord changes for his chart which are significantly different from Harold Arlen's concept. The result is that the chart is cool yet progressive. Whilst the band notes are easy, it will need to be sung very confidently, as the vocal line doesn't immediately sit very naturally against the band backings. It will require a bit of practice. Ella's vocal line is written as-sung, including the scat passage towards the close of the chart. The vocal key is Bb throughout, and there are no sax doubles. The original vibe solo is replaced by Piano ad-lib.
