Creator's Comments
Performance Notes
An interesting alternative to the London Horn Sound arrangement by Runswick, this arrangement is a bit basic with mainly chordal accompaniment. The solo line is written out in straight quavers (eight notes) and marked “freely”, so interpretation is really up to the performer. An easy to put together version of the 1928 Carmichael hit, this arrangement will hopefully be published at some point in the future, to grant an even wider range of ensembles access to this classic.
