Beautifully transcribed by Jon Harpin from the Neal Hefti chart written for the Sinatra Basie album, I Only Have Eyes For You is pure crooning Sinatra, yet with enough in the chart for the band to shine alongside the vocalist. The arrangement is taken at an easy, laid-back tempo, and is full of rich tonal colour and shade which is the trademark of Hefti. The opening is scored for Flute doubles by the Altos, though the lines are also scored in the Tenors in case your Altos don't play Flutes. Sinatra's vocal is written as performed, and all the dynamics and articulations are written clearly so that your band can re-create an authentic performance. The vocal key is Bb throughout.
