Level: Medium

The Michael Buble version on the DVD "Caught In The Act" features mainly strings and the rhythm section. Cy Payne has carefully adapted the arrangement for the usual big band line up, plus optional synth. strings. The lyrical intro is on alto sax. The first 8 bars of the vocal have just a piano backing and then the saxes and synth. strings add just the right atmosphere. Muted brass contribute to the dreamy feeling, whilst Cy has faithfully re-created the powerful brass figures from the original recording, before this un-missable chart glides to its magical ending.
