Powerhouse Orchestrations
True - Anka/Payne - Jazz Ensemble/Vocal - Gr. Medium Difficult
Composer: Gary Kemp
Adapted from the Recording by Paul Anka
Transcribed and Adapted: Cy Payne
Style: Swing
Level: Medium Difficult
True, by Gary Kemp, was the title track on Spandau Ballet's 1980s album of the same name and was a worldwide hit. To just say that this arrangement is 'Basie Style' does not do it justice. It is quite simply a perfect creation - right from the delicately phrased piano intro, followed by 9 bars of relaxed full ensemble with a walking bass line and Freddie Green style understated guitar before the vocal starts. The music then very gradually builds to a powerful ending. Brilliant!
Vocal Key: F
Vocal range: D - A
Trumpet range: D#6
Trombone range: F#4
