Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement with Female Vocal Trio

Description: Swing - Medium Difficult

Publisher: Lush Life Music

Here is the Andrews Sisters' fabulous version of "Bounce Me Brother With A Solid Four" from the 1941 film "Buck Pirates." Other than expanding the band to a full 5444 line-up, this chart is "as played" in the movie. The arrangement is essentially in three sections; the long band swing intro; the SSA vocal and the band swing ending. If you wish to shorten the chart a little, there are two options provided: a 'vocal ending' prior to the final band section, or omit the intro and start with the vocal. The vocal chart is written 'as sung' by the Andrews Sisters and accurately recreates their vocal harmonies. The saxes are scored AATTB and the Alto 2 part has a short Clarinet double. The vocal key is C, modulating to Ab and reverting to C.
