A favorite of bands, jazz musicians, and dancers for one hundred years, Whispering has stood the test of time. It is a great tune, and one of great historic importance that deserves a place in your band's library!

This is more than a lead sheet: it is an arrangement in Eb, including the lyrics and the rarely-heard verse. This is ready to pass out to your combo: bass, guitar, drums, piano, voice, and some horns, too.
The chart is professionally engraved and formatted for ease of reading.

This arrangement is based on the stellar recording by Bing Crosby with Bob Scoby's Frisco Jazz Band on:
Bing with a Beat (RCA Victor, 1957) - see history below.


Tell Me - a brief history:
One of the first recordings made by a jazz ensemble, The Original Dixieland 'Jass' Band in 1919. Also a hit recording for tenor Lamber Murphy on Victor Record #45171 on September 18, 1919 (9/18 is arranger Dan Gabel's birthday!).

The song experienced renewed interest in the 1950s thanks to the hit recording and movie by Doris Day On Moonlight Bay in 1951. It was also recorded with success by Burl Ives and gained popularity in the folk/country music scene.

Revived once again with the original verse, Bing Crosby recorded it on one of the best jazz vocal albums of the 1950s: Bing with a Beat, with Bob Scoby's Frisco Jazz Band.

TYPE JOHN FRIES IN THE SEARCH BAR TO SEE ALL I HAVE TO OFFER. Thanks, John. I Wished on the Moon is a song composed by Ralph Rainger, with lyrics by Dorothy Parker. Bing Crosby sang the song in The Big Broadcast of 1936. Crosby recorded the song on August 14, 1935 with The Dorsey Brothers Orchestra and it reached the charts of the day peaking at No. 2 during a seven-week stay. At the end of the long recording session, Crosby decided to sing only a single chorus of the song in the middle of an orchestral version instead of the full ballad treatment used in the film. This led to a long argument between the singer and producer Jack Kapp. Eventually Crosby prevailed. Crosby recorded the song again in 1954 for his album Bing: A Musical Autobiography.
