Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Advanced

Publisher: Lush Life Music

Once in a while there comes along a chart which just makes you want to listen and weep with joy. This Ted Heath version of "Memories of You" is one of them. A fabulous feature for two Trumpets, the arrangement is full of lush backings and builds from a relatively quiet opening, through two key changes to a flat out finale which soars ever higher and higher. Simply stunning. We have rated this chart as Advanced because of the demands on the Trumpet soloists. The 2nd is written to F6, and the 1st to G6. Apart from that, the other band parts are straightforward. Lead Alto doubles Clarinet, and there are no other sax doubles.
