The Glory of Love Billy Hill / Arr. Inge Sunde

Serie / Series: Flex 5 ShowBlow

This very old pop tune comes here in an easy arrangement, but though with extensive content, written for flexible instrumentation.

"The Glory of Love", composed by Billy Hill (1899 1940), was first released by Willie Bryant and His Orchestra in 1936. Benny Goodman's version from the same year became a number one pop hit.
The song has been recorded by a long list of artists; The Five Keys (1951), The Platters (1956), Peggy Lee (1958), Dean Martin (1966), Otis Redding (1968), Bette Midler (1988), Paul McCartney (2012) and many others.
The intention of the arrangement has been to give each of the instrumental parts both melodic and rhythmic tasks, and at the same time keep both melody and accompaniment in an easy level (Grade 2).
The Drum part is optional, but will put an extra plus to the arrangement.
Please be sure to have a good balance between the instrumental parts, let the melody come through, and always keep the tempo in an easy and relaxed laid-back swing.

[NO]"The Glory of Love", skrevet av Billy Hill (1899 1940), ble første gang utgitt med Willie Bryant and His Orchestra i 1936. Benny Goodman's versjon fra samme år ble en "number one" pophit.
Sangen har blitt innspilt med en rekke artister; The Five Keys (1951), The Platters (1956), Peggy Lee (1958), Dean Martin (1966), Otis Redding (1968), Bette Midler (1988), Paul McCartney (2012) og mange andre.
Hensikten med arrangementet har vært å gi hver enkelt av stemmene både melodiske og rytmiske oppgaver, samtidig som melodi og akkompagnement holdes innenfor en enkel vanskelighetsgrad (Grad 2).
Trommestemmen er valgfri, men den setter en ekstra spiss på arrangementet når den tas med.
Pass på at det til enhver tid er god balanse mellom stemmene, la melodien komme fram, og hold tempoet nede i en lett og avslappet, "laid-back swing".
