Jazz Big Band with Vocal - Medium

SKU: JL.LL-2291

By Frank Sinatra. Edited by Jon Harpin. Arranged by Nelson Riddle. Jazz Vocal. Swing. Full score and parts. Published by Lush Life (JL.LL-2291).

Here is Jon Harpin's transcription of Just One Of Those Things which is the first track on the 1954 Swing Easy album, the first Capitol album to feature the arrangements of Nelson Riddle. A feature of this chart are some of the deliberate dissonances between reeds and brass in the opening intro and modulation passage of the chart. Your band might need to play them a couple of times to get used to them. The chart itself has many Riddle trademarks, from well voiced punchy brass to skilfully harmonized reeds, and it shows the beginnings of what were to become Riddle hallmarks in later arrangements. Aside from a Tenor noodling behind the vocal there are no band solos and the vocal key is D, modulating to Eb.

Instrumentation: Vocal, 2 Alto Saxophones, 2 Tenor Saxophones, Baritone Saxophone, 4 Trumpets, 4 Trombones, Guitar, Piano, Bass, Drums.
