CHICAGO

RECORDED BY TOMMY DORSEY

ARRANGED BY SY OLIVER, TRANSCRIBED BY ALAN GLASSCOCK

A Tommy Dorsey - Sy Oliver classic, beautifully transcribed by Alan Glasscock from the 1945 Dorsey/Oliver/Sentimentalists recording. This chart features trombone, trumpet, clarinet and tenor, and of course your male vocalist and backing group, although it is perfectly singable with just a solo vocal instead. The chart has been presented here 'as-played' by the Dorsey band, and is has been graded as medium difficult, purely because the brass ranges are fairly high (trumpets 1,2,3 to at least Bb5, with option to D6, and 1st trombone to high C5). Alto 2 is written to double clarinet and take the solos. The tenor solo is written on tenor 1, and the trumpet solos on trumpet 2. The vocal chorus is in the key of Bb. Swing @ 150 b.p.m.

Ranges:

Trumpets 1-4: D6, D6, B5, A5

Trombones 1-4: C5, A4, A4, D4

Vocal key: Bb
