Experience Frank Foster's iconic big band arrangement of Duke Ellington and Bob Russell's timeless jazz standard, "Do Nothing Till You Hear From Me," as famously performed by Diane Schuur. This meticulously crafted chart, scored for a full 17-piece instrumentation (5 saxophones, 4 trumpets, 4 trombones, guitar, piano, bass, and drums), offers an authentic and engaging experience for any advanced ensemble. Foster’s arrangement captures the sophisticated swing and blues-infused harmonic language characteristic of the Count Basie Orchestra, where he served as a prominent arranger. Expect a moderate swing tempo feel, allowing for expressive phrasing and a relaxed, yet propulsive, rhythmic foundation. The arrangement features well-defined ensemble passages with rich voicings, dynamic contrasts that build and release tension, and designated solo sections providing ample opportunity for improvisation, particularly for the saxophone and trumpet sections. This "medium" difficulty arrangement is an excellent choice for advanced high school, collegiate, or professional big bands.
