Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Ballad - Medium

Publisher: Lush Life Music

"Stardust" is one of the great Hoagy Carmichael tunes, and deserves a place in the library of every band. Bob Martin has done a truly excellent job of transcription and modification of this Ted Heath version, which is a two-trumpet feature from start to finish. The key change in the middle of the piece has been brought down a fourth from the original, so bringing it into the range of most players. Bob describes this as a process of mortalisation - so that us mortals can play it. A rich, big big chart.
