"......a place or time I Was and still may be Someone Else...." The song, written by Jeffrey J Allison in 2022, begins with alto sax introducing the main theme then a duet with tenor and alto introducing a second melody followed by a full sax section and soprano sax playing a third melody giving it a fun ending. Let me know what you think of I Was Someone Else.more

The song, written by Johnny Mandel, was introduced in the 1965 film The Sandpiper. It won the Grammy Award for Song of the Year and the Academy Award for Best Original Song and is ranked number 77 in the AFI's list of the 100 top movie songs of the 20th century. This is my arrangement. It is not all about the melody, although you hear it throughout the song it's about all the other stuff going on and later my counter melody takes importance finally giving "Shadow" its due at the very end.more
