MANHATTAN
ADAPTED FROM THE RECORDING BY ELLA FITZGERALD
ARRANGED BY BUDDY BREGMAN, ADAPTED BY MYLES COLLINS
Manhattan was recorded by Ella Fitzgerald in 1957, for the Verve album "Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Rodgers & Hart Songbook". The original Buddy Bregman arrangement was scored for strings, and orchestral woodwinds (flutes, oboes, clarinets), harp, tuned percussion and a rhythm section. This version uses the same counter-melodic lines as the original, but scored for a regular 5/4/4/4 big band instead, with the Saxes and Trombones taking most of the original string lines. The chart is very easy, with limited brass ranges (Trumpets only up to G on stave, and Trombones to F). The Rhythm parts are all written out, though your players can improvise their lines based on the given chords instead. Alto 1 doubles Clarinet, though the part has a non-double option too, printed on the reverse. The vocal is "as sung" by Ella, in the key of Bb. Swing @ 120 b.p.m.

Trumpets 1-4: G5, G5, G5, C5
