Golden Wedding by Woody Herman Big Band - Sheet Music

By Woody Herman

What can we say about the Golden Wedding , other than it is a stunning concert vehicle to show off the talents of your Clarinettist, lead trumpet and drummer. It is a classic chart from the Herman band, and in many ways is Hermans' answer to Sing Sing Sing. The music was written in 1887 by Gabriel Marie, originally entitled "La Cinquantaine", and arranged by James Noble in 1940 and re-used for the 1942 Andrews Sisters film "What's Cookin". The Clarinet part is written to reach high A, but we've added a couple of extra measures at the end, in case you player wishes to aim for high C and bring the house down. Saxes are scored for CATTB Duration: 3 mins, 5 secs / Style: Swing @ 195 b.p.m. Ranges:Trumpets 1-4: B5, E5, C5, A4Trombones 1-4: B5, E5, C5, A4

Arranged by?

This chart was originally Transcribed and Adapted by Andy Firth in 2010. Perhaps this is a re-issue of this chart? The original issue of the copyright says 2010 lush life music, Accessible Music Productions. I'm glad they're still using my extended ending as it's more fun for the soloist I think.
