Improvisation on "Fly Me to the Moon" by Richard Metzger

The song actually is named after its first line after the proper title given by Bart Howard did not stick. It was written in 1954 and covered extensively as a standard through the 1960s and beyond. The song essentially uses a "Vivaldi sequence" progression, and it is one which flips back and forth between minor and relative major. It is also in triple meter, which makes it a tad unusual for a jazz tune.
