“Georgia on My Mind” – Doc Severinsen Sheet Music: A Write-Up

Overview

“Georgia on My Mind,” written by Hoagy Carmichael (music) and Stuart Gorrell (lyrics), is one of the most enduring American standards. While famously performed by Ray Charles (who made it the official state song of Georgia in 1979), the piece has a special place in the brass world thanks to legendary trumpeter Doc Severinsen. His virtuosic, lyrical arrangement for trumpet and ensemble transforms the soulful ballad into a showpiece for solo trumpet. georgia on my mind doc severinsen sheet music
