Recorded By Ella Fitzgerald

Arranged By Nelson Riddle, Prepared By Dylan Canterbury, Rob Duboff And Jeffrey Sultanof

Ballad - Medium

This is one of a series of arrangements written by Nelson Riddle for Ella Fitzgerald focusing on the Gershwin songbook. These arrangements constitute some of the most famous settings of classic songs for one of the greatest vocalists in American music. 'Ella Fitzgerald Sings the George and Ira Gershwin Songbook' was the high point in the series of songbook packages produced by Norman Granz for the Verve label. There had been four such projects beforehand: boxes of songs by Cole Porter, Rodgers and Hart, Duke Ellington and Irving Berlin preceded it. Granz decided to make the Gershwin box the most ambitious of all of them; 5 LPs plus a 7" limited edition bonus disc that included Riddle arrangements of Gershwin instrumental compositions. This was the first songbook that was arranged and conducted by Nelson Riddle. Granz had wanted Riddle for the first songbooks, but he was unavailable at the time. These arrangements have been requested for many years, and it is a thrill to present them, engraved and prepared from the original score. This is primarily a string arrangement with a complement of 3 flutes, bass clarinet, 2 horns, 4 trombones, harp, guitar, piano/celeste, bass, drums, and percussion (bells and vibraphone). Nelson Riddle crafted a beautiful setting for the vocalist. There are no solos.
