Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Difficult

Publisher: Sierra Music Publishing

Nelson wrote an album for Johnny Hodges (3 Shades of Blue) featuring the compositions of Duke Ellington and also some of his original things. This Ellington tune just romps and stomps right from the start. The ensemble "shouts" just scream with wonderful voicings that lift you up out of your seat! There is solo space for alto sax (of course), trumpet, and piano. Ellington's melody and Nelson's arrangement...an absolute winning combination! Your band will love this one!
