Description
This beautiful even 8ths ballad is a great feature for your tenor sax player who presents the melody before the ensemble takes on with beautiful voicings played by flute, clarinets and flugelhorns. after the first solo chorus, it changes to a double time swing feel for the second solo chorus before it leads into a short but high energetic 'quasi symphonic' ensemble. Nice chords and lovely sounds!
