The beauty of this song is its simplicity, but with a twist. Its simple in that its just a jazz song, but the twist is that its a jazz song for strings. Strings dont do jazz! It's extremely hard to 'swing' the bow to match that classic jazz swing.
LHS is playing this this year. I'm in the 2nd Violin section, and it's WICKED fun to play. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it, although I love the first violin part, and I miss being a first violin, I still Love the song <3
PLAYING THIS 4 CABARET!!!! :)

@ILoveYewwCorey: Actually i saw them play it live. It only took 4 violinists, 1 drummer, 1 bass guitar, and 1 electric. ^.^ they were amazing

there are no violas in this band and the point of the band would be lost if there was

It's just a swung rhythm...Emphasis is more on the off beats than the on beats...Not as bad a syncopated ryhthms...
Honestly, orchestra students... : D

thats not a viola solo, thats when all violins play slow notes...

I'm playing a version where that is a viola solo, so I guess that our arrangement is just a little different.
