John Hall and his then-wife Johanna had written several hit songs for John's group, Orleans. Â Johanna wanted to create a song in the 1950s doo-wop style she so admired. Â They did, and their composition described a certain Miss Grace who enchanted the lyricist with her â€œsatin and perfume and lace.â€ Â The problem was: that song really did not fit in with Orleans' pop rock repertoire and image. Â Meanwhile, The Tymes, a Philadelphia group, was looking for a number that might revive its popularity. Â So when the Miss Grace song was suggested they decided to take it on.Â This was the mid-1970s, just when the honorific Ms. was growing in use. Â So The Tymes changed the song's title to â€œMs. Grace.â€ Â Released as a single, the song did very well in the UK, topping the chart at number one in January 1975.Â Â Written in 4/4 time, this brass quintet version flows along at about 104 BPM. Â Beginning notation instructs that eighth-note pairs are to be played so that the first note is about twice as long as the second; in other words, swing style. Â It retains the original D major key, but gives most of the melody to Horn and Trombone an octave lower so that it stays within normal playing range of the group. Â The nature of the song is such that there are a number of phrases that begin with off-beat pickup notes.Â Trumpets provide accents and flourishes and occasionally take over the melody for a few measures. Â Tuba really does the most work, playing through almost the entire piece.Â Â Completed in 2023, performance time runs about 3 minutes, 3 seconds. The arranger, Les Smith, will be happy to provide substitute parts (for example, treble clef baritone for trombone) at no charge. Â He would like to receive your suggestions, comments, corrections and criticisms.
