Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Medium

Publisher: Sierra Music

 

There have been a lot of published charts on this great Ernie Wilkins arrangement, but this is the original version as played and recorded by the Count Basie Orchestra. “Moten Swing” is possibly the most played piece of music by the Basie band and has been recorded on countless CDs, making this chart a must-have your band’s library as it exemplifies wonderful roaring ensemble passages with soft, soft sections which will make your band sparkle. This new Finale edition includes a transcribed piano solo throughout, detailed rhythm parts which are written out (except during the solos), and clearer, cleaner, more complete parts. There is solo space for tenor saxophone, trumpet, and piano. 5-4-4-4There have been a lot of published charts on this great Ernie Wilkins arrangement, but this is the original version as played and recorded by the Count Basie Orchestra. “Moten Swing” is possibly the most played piece of music by the Basie band and has been recorded on countless CDs, making this chart a must-have your band’s library as it exemplifies wonderful roaring ensemble passages with soft, soft sections which will make your band sparkle.
