Transcribed from Sy Oliver's chart for Frank Sinatra on his 1961 "I Remember Tommy" album, East of the Sun is a laid-back swing chart taken at a relaxed pace that, after a four measure into, features your vocalist from start to finish. The band backings are subtle and very classy, reflecting Sy Oliver's understanding of how to score a band to support a singer, and the brass ranges are moderate too. There are no sax doubles and the vocal key is G throughout.

Ranges: Trumpets 1-4 C#6, A5, A5, A5
  Trombones 1-4 B4, G4, G4, D4
