Whispering" chord changes

Post by Ian McLatchie »

Anyone got a lead arrangement for the old pop standard "Whispering?" There are some variations in the versions I'm working from and it would be nice to see how the tune was originally written. Thanks.

Ian- It is originally in Eb. I used to play it in the late 40's. Makes a nice solo.

Roy- I don't think you sent me that one. I'd like to hear it......al Image Image

Check out the Dizzy Gillespie tune "Groovin' High". Its based on those chord changes with a bop melody.
