Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Ballad - Medium Easy

Publisher: Alfred Publishing

Jazz pianist Erroll Garner wrote this classic ballad. Everyone will recognize this unforgettable melody as you show off your lead alto sax and first trumpet in the solo spotlight. Designed for younger groups, this chart has easy ranges and rhythms, but a powerful ensemble sound makes the big band sound come alive. Mike Lewis's fine arrangement is the perfect way to expose your young players to phrasing, style and a timeless jazz standard. Works with reduced instrumentation and optional parts.
