Edition: Jazz Little Big Band Arrangement

Description: Bossa Nova - Medium

Publisher: Walrus Music Publishing

A Bossa Nova chart scored to be played by a little big band. It starts as a Bossa and goes in to swing at the bridge and returns to the Bossa feel. Sections can be opened giving any one in the band the opportunity to improvise. Solos have melodic background figures complimenting the soloist's lines. Students will have fun with this chart and learn to be competent improvisers using a lot of II, V, I chord changes. This little big band chart offers a lot of ensemble playing giving it a truly big band sound. A,T,B, 2 Trpt, 1 Bone, P,B,D. Trpt. 1 to written Ab just above the staff. Medium.
