Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Fast Swing - Difficult

Publisher: Walrus Music Publishing

Don't be scared off by the dissonant, contrapuntal introduction; Phil Woods' "All Bird's Children" is largely a fun-filled bebop romp that will serve as a wonderful vehicle for your star alto sax player. The form has a few unusual twists to it, but still manages to flow nicely and naturally. The sax soli at letter D is sure to give your section a good workout, and a strong brass section is required for some of the rangier background figures.
