Description:

Here is the quirky Billy May version of You're Driving Me Crazy from 1950, full of wonderfully humourous musical invention. The arrangement seems to be moving along at a nice steady 2-in-the-bar pace, when all of a sudden something completely different crops up, blasts away for a bar or two, and then normality is restored. Whether it be the Saxes bending their notes, the Trumpets coming in with phrases that could be taken from a Looney Tunes cartoon, or dissonant Trombones playing off the beat, this chart is certainly unusual, and NOT for the dancers! If you want a special arrangement for a special occasion, this is it. There are no Sax doubles, and we have rated it as Medium / Advanced as the Brass ranges are quite high.
