Dive into the lush, sultry sound of Temptation, arranged in the classic style of the legendary Artie Shaw. This big band arrangement brings the timeless elegance and swing of Shaw's music to life, featuring a rich blend of brass, reeds, and optional strings for added depth and sophistication.
Instrumentation includes 5 saxophones (with a standout clarinet feature part for the baritone sax player and improvised solo for Alto Sax 2), 4 trumpets, 2 optional French Horns, 4 trombones, piano, guitar, bass, drums, and percussion, including optional timpani for an extra dramatic touch. To capture the full orchestral feel reminiscent of Shaw's later works, optional string parts are included for violins (Vln1, Vln2), viola, cello, and double bass (CB).
This arrangement of Temptation is perfect for big band concerts, swing dance events, and any performance that calls for a touch of vintage glamour and romance. The piece captures the signature blend of sophistication and rhythmic drive that defined Artie Shaw’s style, making it a versatile addition to any band's repertoire.
