’s Wonderful by Artie Shaw. Edited by Myles Collins. Arranged by Ray Conniff. For big band,
Swing, Medium. Published by Lush Life (JL.LL-1243).
Originally arranged by Ray Conniff for the Shaw band and recorded in January 1945, this
excellent chart works so well on many levels. It contains a fair number of innovative
arrangement techniques: the opening unison trombone riff, the tenor doubling lead beneath
the trumpets, the clarinet leading the trumpets in the middle eight, a five-part combo in the
middle and a great shift to full swing feel after Shaws' glorious solo work (which is written
out in full). Conniff has taken what is otherwise an arguably slightly dull tune and turned it
into a masterpiece. This chart is a must for all Shaw lovers. Style: Swing @ 195 b.p.m.
Ranges:Trumpets 1-4: D6, C6, C6, C6Trombones 1-4: A4, Bb4, E4, E4.
