By Jack Leonard with Tommy Dorsey Orchestra. Composed by Jerome Kern. Arranged by Liz Garnett. Musical/Show. Octavo. 4 pages. Liz Garnett #4966823. Published by Liz Garnett (A0.856234).This ballad has not only been recorded by artists from Ella Fitzgerald to Michael Jackson, but has become the medium for harmonic exploration by a host of jazz instrumentalists. This arrangement puts its harmonic shape back in service of its story-telling to re-cast it as a barbershop contest ballad. The tonal twists and turns inherent in the melody are there, but the chord choices prioritise cleaner, ringier voicings over the extended harmonies of some renditions.
The sweeping melodic line is complemented by harmony parts designed to flow; the bass line in particular invites and rewards lyricism.
N.B. This arrangement is notated in treble and bass alta (i.e. sung an octave higher than written) clefs.
