Lullaby Of Birdland Big Band - Sheet Music

SKU: JL.LL-1102

Lullaby of Birdland was written by the great English born pianist George Shearing, and this chart has been transcribed from the Ted Heath book by Mogens Hobel. The original Reg Owen arrangement was one of Heath's most requested tunes, and as well as containing some lovely ensemble writing it gives solo opportunities to your Pianist and lead Tenor. The chart is typical of many of Heath's numbers - a mix of subtelty and raw power, light and shade. An excellent tune for dancing or for concert work. Both Altos double Clarinet, and Trumpets 1 & 2 reach a brief high D, though the chart is not generally demanding on your brass players' chops. Ranges: Trumpets 1-4: D6 D6, A5, A5 Trombones 1-4: A4, G4, E4, C4.
