Here is a good example of creative arranging using very limited technical demands. Michael has taken this familiar standard and converted it into a smooth-sounding Latin chart. A trumpet/alto duet starts things out, then the full ensemble gets into the act. No solos are required, however, a stop-time section features written or ad lib. drum fills.

For the third time the melody popped up, I liked how it was mostly the lower pitched instruments on the melody, and the drum breaks were also cool

The ultimate NYC elevator music

Great arrangement. I like the little two-bar extension at measure 37-38 reprising the intro. In fact, I wonder if the arranger actually wrote 35-38 first, then later decided to use that as the intro. Very clever ending with the sax section sustained by themselves.

I heard a version of this song at the end of an Evangelion Abridged series...
