Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Difficult

Publisher: Lush Life Music

"Swingtime in the Rockies" is a fast-paced (240 bpm) swing chart in riff style from the earlier days of the Goodman band. The brass has been augmented from the original 5 to 8 voices to suit a standard 5444 big band line-up. The reeds are scored for CAATT throughout, and the Goodman solos are written out in full too. Aside from the clarinet, the only other solo is taken by trumpet 2 and is written out as-played by Harry James. This is not the easiest chart to play, as nimble fingers are needed to keep the chart tidy at this tempo.
