Initially this lush melody is presented with a soaring trumpet solo and warm full-band accompaniment. Then the variations include a cha-cha version and an oom-pah version. Consider programming all four Roy Phillippe variations to the Wizard of Oz, including "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" (26767) and "If I Only Had A Brain" (26769). A most creative set of arrangements!
