 | This music has a difficulty rating of 3 on a scale of 1 to 6. |
Estimated Performance Time:
Technical Notes: Notes to the director: This is a swing arrangement all the way and should have a triplet feel throughout. Several rhythms have been written differently, but must be played the same way.
Listening to Glenn Miller's recordings of these three selections will give you the correct interpretation. "Serenade In Blue" should be played slowly and "laid back".
Arranger(s): Eric Osterling |
