Audio Sample:

Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Difficult

Publisher: Jazz Lines Publications

Here is one of the most famous and groundbreaking big band arrangements from the early swing era. Written in 1934 by pianist Eddie Wilcox, this arrangement was a novelty number for the band showcasing the reeds and trumpets. The syncopation will require special attention, especially by trumpets 1 and 2 who play against each other. Alto 1 doubles on clarinet. If you're looking for a fast showcase for your band, this is it! The sound sample has been provided by Dr. William Meckley and the Empire Jazz Orchestra featuring Claudio Roditi.
