Abstract
|
Big band leader and arranger during the 1940's and 1950's.
The Sonny Burke Collection (chiefly undated, but some dated between Nov., 1949 and June, 1951) has as its focal point 76 arrangements of popular music for big band. These charts were used by Burke's bands during the 1940's-1950's for performances in the United States and Mexico. Most of the arrangements are by Sonny Burke, but other composers/arrangers include: Frank Erickson, Hal Schaefer, Stan Kenton, John Valentine Eppel, Laurindo Almeida, and Ray Conniff. Some of the arrangements were made for recordings on the Decca Records label.
The addition (2007-0003) is arrangements of LOVER, I WANT TO BE HAPPY, and STOMPIN' AT THE SAVOY for big band.
