Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Medium Difficult

Publisher: Sierra Music

If you're familiar with the great chart on "I Can't Stop Loving You" that was created for the Basie Band, then you know what this one is about. This tune is set in a heavy shuffle feel, with lots of Basie-type, swinging ensemble work. There is a short trumpet solo, but most of the chart shows off the whole band with one "shout chorus" after another. It all culminates in a strong, glorious ending. This one comes with a guarantee that your audiences will love it. This is a simplified version of the Doc Severinsen arrangement. There are no range concerns in this. 5-4-4-4
