Piano arrangement by Cyril Watters. ----------------------------------------------- Although I have seen it included in a swing album, this innovative 1941 orchestral piece by the British bandleader, pianist and accordionist Eric Winstone (1913-74) is really Latin-flavoured. The recorded orchestral version, with the tune on accordion (presumably Winstone) and jazz violin, with a continuous xylophone obbligato is quite mesmerising. You can read more about Winstone's interesting life here: http://bit.ly/UmUgl3 . The piano arrangement conveys something of the xylophone figuration, and seems to use a different fiddle solo to that on the Winstone recording. Cyril Watters (1907-84) was a successful pianist, arranger, composer of light music, and repetiteur for ice shows.
