Arab Dance was copyrighted in 1941. It is credited to both Claude Thornhill and Gil Evans, although the manuscript is clearly in Evans hand. The melody comes from a section of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker ballet, and was long in the public domain when the setting was written. There are minor differences between this arrangement and the arrangement recorded in 1946, particularly the brass figures from bar 211. It was decided to present the arrangement exactly as written in 1941 or 1942, as it is one of the few examples of Evans from this early period. Also please note that due to time constraints, bars 19-43 were cut for the recording.
