I have written a slightly different arrangement for Duke Ellington's Don't Get Around Much Anymore. I did this because 1) I wanted to try the Workscore editor with a song I knew, and 2) I can never find this song in this key, which I transposed for my singer. This arrangement is also a bit different than the one on this site, so I figured SongTrellis could also benefit from having this here. Now, I can practice soloing over this song now that it is nicely on Songtrellis in the key I need.

I noticed that the score is chopped off after 28 bars though. It still plays though. The chords after the "end" of the song are: E7 Gbm7-5 Gm7-5 Abm7-5 | Abm7-5 | Am7 | D7 | G | Am7 | D13 | G

New feature: use the SongTrellis Excerpt Service to customize this piece. Prepare scores for transposing instruments, transpose the score to a new key, change tempo, clip an excerpt for your own practice, study, or composition work.
