A classic Cole Porter song from 1932, Night and Day was a 'must-have' number for the great Big Bands of the era. This version is based on that used by Ella Fitzgerald, and is a good example of how to score the band to best support the vocalist. The arrangement includes the vocal verse, backed by a solo tom-tom, leading into the tutti chorus. A very easy to play chart, and very effective in performance. Please note that the vocal key of this chart is A flat.
