Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement with Vocal
Description: Swing - Difficult
Publisher: Lush Life Music
We are pleased to offer Rosemary Clooney's hard-swingin', foot-tappin' version of "Get Me To The Church On Time." Lovingly transcribed and adapted by Jon Harpin from the Nelson Riddle original, this charts is a belter of a vocal number. The church / tubular bells of the Riddle original (which are pretty key to making the chart convincing) have been scored onto the piano part, and if your pianist uses a keyboard a good bell sound at the appropriate times will sound great. There are a couple of cameo solos - trumpet 2 and alto 2 on flute - both written out, though the alto 2/flute is really only optional, to add a bit of tonal color. The chart is a reasonably tough blow, but fairly straight-ahead. The vocal key is D throughout.
