Emily
“Emily” is a beautiful waltz-certainly one of the finest melodies of our time by composer Johnny Mandel. Arranger Lisa DeSpain delivers a fine chart that will help you teach phrasing, how to connect the phrases, phrase contour, use of slurs, and vibrato. The melody is stated by trombone and tenor sax, written or ad lib solos are for trombone and cued for trumpet. Range is modest and the rhythm section can focus on the 3/4 feel. You’ll enjoy this one.
