Did you know that Charlie Parker plucked this beautiful tune from obscurity (from the 1936 Hollywood flop Rose of the Rancho) and made it a great jazz standard in 1949 on his April In Paris album with strings?

This hard-swinging and rather challenging arrangement will make your ensemble sound great, too!
