This arrangement for Voice and Brass Quintet is a great addition to any brass or vocal concert. The first part is in a slow ballad style with gorgeous jazzy harmony, giving both the singer and brass players the change to show their lyrical side. The second part is much more up-beat and in the style of The Drifters, including a cheeky trumpet harmon mute solo! Both musicians and audience alike are sure to enjoy this arrangement.
