Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Medium Easy

Publisher: Lush Life Music

This is the Harry James version of 'You Made Me Love You,' and, as you might expect, it is a trumpet feature. Harry James recorded this version a couple of times. Once in the early '40s and again in the mid '50s. On both occasions he used a string section in the band. This version is scored for a regular 5-4-4-4 line-up, and the strings have been removed and their lines written back into the band, whilst retaining the flavour and feel of the original concept. The sax parts are printed double sided. On one side is the version calling for all saxes to double clarinets (bari on bass clari) as per the HJ original, and the other side is scored for a regular AATTB section with no clarinet doubles. Please ensure your players all use the same version. The trumpets are scored for solo, 1, 2 & 3, and there are 4 trombone parts to fill out the section, as HJ only used 3. The HJ solo is taken from the 1941 recording. The brass ranges are moderate, so this is graded Easy / Medium.
