(Level 4) A new song with a lovely verse. Now there's a rarity. This Broadley original rediscovers the beauty of "the verse" leading into a tune. This arrangement starts out with a solo voice and rubato piano then the song soars, weaving in and out of tight unison and four-part phrases. Trading vocal soli with horn solo adds a different dimension in the middle of the arrangement. SATB with rhythm section.
