Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement with Vocal

Description: Waltz - Medium

Publisher: Jazz at Lincoln Center

This Vincent Gardner arrangement of one of the best-known traditional holiday tunes makes itself stand out via its unique straight-8ths waltz feel. Originally featuring vocalist Cecile McLorin-Salvant, the ensemble portions weave around the lyrics and frequently employ many Ellington-inspired touches, including plunger-wielding brass and upper-register woodwinds, although the overall harmonic content is decidedly modern. There is a short piano solo written into the arrangement, as well as an extended vamp for vocal improvisation at the end.
