Ray Anthony

As Time Goes By

In 1994, just four short decades after recording his 'Dream Dancing' album, Ray Anthony took his band back into the studio to record Dream Dancing II. This transcription of As Time Goes By is from that album. The only change we have made from the original is to reduce the brass to 8 voices, from the original 9. The solo Trumpet work is written on the 3rd part. The saxes (CAATT) are Miller voiced throughout and the brass ranges are moderate, making the chart sound rich and lush. A good late-night closer which works equally well in a concert or gig setting.
