A swinger from the creative mind of arranger Tom Davis, IT HAD TO BE YOU continues to be a well-known standard song popular in movies and on TV. The students will dig into this swinging chart starting with the clever intro right into the trombone section melody. Solo space (with written solos provided) is for trombone, trumpet and tenor sax and the brass ranges are reasonable. Your search for a superb arrangement by an experienced writer of a great American standard is over. A winner of a chart!
