Description:
Too Darn Hot was written by Cole Porter for the 1948 musical 'Kiss Me Kate' and was featured by Ella Fitzgerald on her Cole Porter Songbook album, with the original arrangement by Buddy Bregman. We have stayed true to the original with this transcription, allowing you to give an authentic Ella performance. The vocal part is notated 'as sung by Ella', the band backings are tight and punchy, the articulations and dynamics accurately marked and we have even included the little drum fills and licks that make such a difference in performance. The muted Trumpet solos are scored on the 2nd part and there are no sax doubles.
