Petite Fleur

Colin Perry

Does anybody have the changes for this?

Colin,

It is in the old Realbook Volume 2. I don't have a scanner or I'd post it for you. Hope this helps.

Elliot

I have it too, on disc. Hope this works.

Colin Perry

That's it. Thanks!

Jack

While Elliot beat me to the chart, I just want to add that I have NO idea why more bands aren't doing this great tune...a long time back someone posted a thread on the HotClub UK forum along the lines of "What Tune Would You Like For Your Funeral?"...Petite Fleur was mine. Just gorgeous.

Have fun with it!
Jack.

Another good Sidney Bechet tune that would be perfect for Gypsy jazz is Blackstick.

......Alfonso Ponticelli (and Swing Gitane) have a beautiful version of Petite Fleur on their last cd "Sweet Home." While the real book link posted above by Elliot is deviated from, this is still a good chart to refer to as Alfonso creates his individual approach to this great tune.

Thanks for the sheet Elliot, one of the trad players I play with has picked up the sax and this is one of the tunes he has nailed, something to work off now, appreciated
