This chart is a punchy and powerful up-tempo swinger that, aside from the intro and an 8 measure instrumental passage, features your vocalist all the way. The reeds, in a Billy May style, provide the majority of the backings for the first vocal chorus, with the brass adding increasing power up to the close. The arrangement has a lot of dynamic contrast which needs to be played as-written in order to give the right effect. A fine chart for a dance or concert setting. There are no sax doubles and the vocal key is C throughout.
