MELANCHOLY LULLABY

Arranged by Benny Carter, Edited by Jeffrey Sultanof and Rob DuBoff

Melancholy Lullaby was written in 1939 by Benny Carter and became his theme song. In the 1970s Benny revised his 1939 arrangement so that it featured a solo alto saxophonist along with a full big band. This is a very beautiful, late-night, show closer ballad. Brass are on cup mutes throughout. This arrangement was never recorded by Benny.
