n Summertime (from Porgy and Bess)
George Gershwin/arr. Dave Wolpe. What a
wonderfully sultry feature for your vocal soloist!
Gershwin's beautiful ballad is given the Wolpe
treatment...the band simply smolders under the
vocal line that everybody knows. After the first
verse, the band gets a chance to show some flames
of its own on a chorus before the vocalist returns.
An optional solo part for tenor sax is included for
added flexibility. Vocals in C minor.

n You Make Me Feel So Youngarr. Quincy
Jones. Here is You Make Me Feel So Young as
arranged by Quincy Jones for the performance
and recording of Frank Sinatra with the Count
Basie Orchestra on the Sinatra Live at the
Sands album of 1966. The original Quincy
Jones manuscript was used to publish this
arrangement, and it is not a transcription. The
original arrangement called for a 5th trumpet that
was played by Harry "Sweets" Edison. This part
primarily contains the chord changes for the fills
that he played, but there was also a brief part that
was written for him to play at the last 7 bars of
the arrangement. The chord changes have been
written into the 1st trumpet part in the event you
don't have a 5th trumpet player. Those last 7 bars
of the 5th trumpet part may be left out as they are
not integral. The vocal key is G modulating to A
flat. There are no sax doubles.

brings this fresh setting of a modern day classic for
vocal soloist and big band. Vocal in A-flat.
