Stevie Wonder wrote Sir Duke as a tribute to Duke Ellington, the jazz composer, bandleader, and pianist. The song is part of Stevie Wonders 1976 album Songs in the Key of Life. Sir Duke is all about celebrating the joy of music.
My arrangement works very well in both SAATB and SATTB lineups. Since the third voice plays solo most of the time, it's mainly a matter of personal preference and individual capabilities to determine which lineup sounds better for you. My arrangement closely follows the original. In particular, the bass and drum parts are quite faithful transcriptions. The general structure and key remain unchanged as well.
