FULL SCORE [JRTS]* A combination of the arrangements on the two recordings shown above, this arrangement features two horn parts that move freely from unsisons to two-part harmonies and back as well as detailed rhythm section parts including piano voicings by the foremost expert on Elmo's music, his soulmate, pianist Bertha Hope. SOLOS: These changes are very playable, with many II-Vs and A sections that stay mostly in F. The bridge goes to B-flat and returns to F via A and G, giving these common changes a nice harmonic detour. * Jazz Repertory Transcription Series include chord voicings, bass lines, drum fills and cued melody lines in rhythm section parts.
