Some Day My Prince Will Come - Dave Brubeck Quartet




Many Disney songs have become jazz standards over the years. Alice in Wonderland, Chim Chim Cher-ee, I Wan'na Be Like You; but there is no other Disney song that has been used by jazz musicians more than Some Day My Prince Will Come from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. So it comes as no surprise that DAVE BRUBECK included it on his album of Disney tunes.

DAVE DIGS DISNEY was inspired by a Disney album his daughter was listening to. Seeing how much she enjoyed it he decided to record an album that his daughter would enjoy just as much. In these recordings you will hear Paul Desmond on the alto sax, Joe Morello on the drums and Eugene Wright playing the double bass.

In this version you will get the feel that most jazz musicians will give this song. It retains its soft and sweet melodies while the rhythm section gives it a light, brisk tempo.
