The song "Some Day My Prince Will Come" was written by composer Frank Churchill and lyricist Larry Morey for Walt Disney's animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. This jazz standard is a favorite and has been recorded many, many times. One of the first jazz recordings was by Donald Byrd and The Dave Brubeck Quartet in 1957. Bill Evans has also recorded the song several times. And who can forget John Coltrane's memorable solo on Miles Davis's rendition on the album Someday My Prince Will Come (1961)?
As I mentioned on an earlier post this cover features my colleague, Nikola. The arrangement is in the key of G major and it is consists of theme, solo, and theme again. The solo is composed of arpeggiated chords and is somewhat reminiscent of a baroque music style, which all together adds a surprising flavor to the song!
