Description
It Had Better Be Tonight arranged by Scott Ragsdale is a great vocal chart! A samba treatment of this popular song, the vocalist range is G below the staff to middle line B. With great horn parts, lead trumpet range to written A, and a tempo around 104 BPM in cut time, this is an excellent vocal chart. Includes optional lead parts for B-flat, E-flat, and bass clef instruments. (3:19)
