Natalie Cole

Orange Coloured Sky

Swing @ 125 b.p.m.

Here is our interpretation of Roger Holmes' great chart for Natalie Cole, from her 'Unforgettable: With Love' album. We have written this transcription for a standard 5/4/4/4 big band, and have followed the form and structure of the final studio version very closely. This chart should be taken as a mid-tempo swinger, at 125 beats per minute. If it is played too fast your vocalist won't have time to sing the lyric clearly. The chart is in the original key of G and there are no sax soubles. Because the lead Trumpet is written to high E and Trombone to B we have rated the chart as medium advanced, though the rest of the band parts are pretty straightforward.
