This chart, arranged by Jimmy Carroll, features solo alto saxophone along with 3 violins, viola, cello, harp, guitar, piano/celeste, bass, and drums. There is no oboe part in this arrangement. In addition, the piano doubles on celeste and the drums double on vibraphone.

It is an optional part that appears in only the last measure of the arrangement. String bowings and harp pedaling has been indicated.
