Come Fly with Me

Written by Jimmy Van Heusen and Sammy Cahn for the title track of Frank Sinatra's 1958 album, this tune epitomizes the cool sounds of the swing era. Here's a smartly scored version for young jazz ensembles with modest ranges, but with authentic style. Included is plenty of tutti ensemble playing along with short solos (or solis) for any sax or trumpet. A great way to teach swing, it's also playable with optional reduced or expanded instrumentations. Included are suggested solos and scale/chord sheets in all keys. Highly recommended!
