Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Advanced

Publisher: Lush Life Music

This arrangement of "Bugle Call Rag," originally scored for the band by Jimmy Mundy, was one of the charts that helped launch the Benny Goodman Orchestra into the swing era that fateful August day at the Palomar Ballroom in 1935. The 1936 studio recording has been transcribed here, and it has been adapted to 8 brass whilst maintaining the feel and flair of the original chart. All of the solos are written out in full - clarinet, trombone, tenor & trumpet - and Gene Krupa's little drum licks behind the solo breaks have been included as well. The reeds are scored for CAATT, and both altos double on clarinet. This is a fast, challenging chart, and highly rewarding to play.
