Benny Goodman

Whispering

Recorded by the Benny Goodman Orchestra in the late 30's, this chart features Trombone, Trumpet, Tenor & Clarinet. The chart opens in the key of A and the Trombone carries most of the melody in the first chorus. The arrangement modulates to Db for the solo Clarinet chorus, with a ripping sax middle 8, and then lifts again to Bb for the shout chorus, featuring solos for 1st Trumpet and 1st Tenor. We have cued both solos onto the Clarinet part should you wish to make more of a Clarinet feature of the chart. All solos are written out in full and have chord cues in case your players wish to improvise their own.
