Description:
This Dorsey classic is based on a 1944 version, when the Dorsey band was at its height. The arrangement went on to be used by the later Dorsey band under the direction of Warren Covington. It is longer than earlier versions, and also longer than the stock chart, with additional solo space for Trumpet and Tenor sax. The backgrounds and fill-ins are complete, as are all of the dynamics and mute / hat indications for the brass. We have included the famous Ziggy Elman trumpet solo which forms the first half of the trumpet's solo space. A thoroughly professional job from Alan Glasscock, this chart is right on the nail.
