Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Difficult

Publisher: Sierra Music

This, of course, is Oliver Nelson's best known jazz standard. Here is his OWN fantastic arrangement for big band as recorded on a 1969 LP titled A Dream Deferred (on the Flying Dutchman label). Alto solo. Exotic re-harmonizations and instrumentations. This is a must have chart after which all other charts on this tune sound inferior.

Please note that the sound sample for this tune is indeed Oliver and his band playing this very chart, but it was recorded live in Seattle, so it will sound slightly different from the LP version.
