About this arrangement

Big band with vocals - Medium SKU: JL.LL-2012 By Frank Sinatra. Edited by Jon Harpin. Arranged by Johnny Mandel. Jazz Vocal. Swing. Full score and set of parts. Published by Lush Life (JL.LL-2012). Zing Went the Strings of My Heart was recorded by Frank Sinatra in December 1960 for the Ring-a-Ding album, but remained unreleased until 1990 when the master tapes of the original recording were rediscovered. This chart is a Sinatra gem, and even includes the rarely-heard opening verse. Beautifully transcribed and adapted by Jon Harpin from the original Johhny Mandel arrangement, to incorporate the strings back into a regular big band line-up, this chart is unique and deserves a place in everyones library.
