Honeysuckle Rose

As the lead-off track from the 1963 album "Ella and Basie," this Quincy Jones chart on Fats Waller's classic Honeysuckle Rose is an absolute tour-de-force for both the incomparable vocals of Ella Fitzgerald and the peerless Count Basie Orchestra. This arrangement is for female vocal soloist with jazz big band. It is not a transcription and has been prepared from Quincy Jones' original score and set of parts used during the recording session. There are no saxophone doubles. Vocal Key: D-flat
