Edition: Nonet Arrangement

Description: Swing - Medium

Publisher: Sierra Music

Shorty Rogers was very well known for his nonet charts (6 horns, 3 rhythm), and this was one of his best-loved compositions. Set in an easy, slow swing, 'Pirouette' has a lilting melody, along with a lovely counter-melody. This is a great chart to do on a big band concert to rest the band and feature your soloists. There is solo space for alto, tenor, flugelhorn, trombone and piano. (alto, tenor, and baritone saxes, 2 flugelhorns, trombone, piano bass, drums).
