In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning
It’s usually during the special days & quietest times that you miss the ones you love. I hope you enjoy this arrangement of “In the Wee Small Hours.” This song is so beautiful that I had to find a way to pay tribute to it’s meaning in an arrangement. Just a couple weeks before my debut album release concerts, I sat down with Tyrone at the piano and we arranged it in a rehearsal session. The drums in the intro are the ticking clock and the bass represents a recurring thought of a loved one late at night. Layering in the percussion and alto flute really make the magic come alive in this arrangement. In rehearsal, the band wanted to take it faster…I kept slowing it down, because this tempo just felt right for the lyric to breathe. In this video, I feature Sam Skelton (alto flute), Tyrone Jackson (piano), Craig Shaw (bass), Justin Varnes (drums), & Emrah Kotan (percussion).
