Appealing to the vast knowledge of this list:

I want to orchestrate a very short section in an orchestral piece in the
manner of one of those big Shirley-Bassey-type numbers (e.g. Hey Big Spender
etc.), but have no idea of the fundamentals of this style of writing.  Is
there a name for this style of writing?  Does anyone know of any
orchestration books which might be able to give me some clues - specifically
for typical voicings, orchestrations etc.?  There was one book by Nelson
Riddle I remember seeing some time ago, but don't know if this would be
applicable.

Yours in ignorance,

Matthew
