One Day I'll Fly Away

Young Jazz Ensemble - Grade 3 From the hit movie Moulin Rouge, this moving ballad provides a nice way to feature several sections of the ensemble in a well-paced arrangement. The tender opening with piano and flugels (opt. trumpets) leads to an alto sax solo on the verse. The full ensemble builds to the emotional peak before the chart winds down to a quiet close with brief written solos for piano and alto sax. Nicely done.
