Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement
Description: Swing - Difficult
Publisher: Jazz Lines Publications
This great minor swing chart was written by Al Cohn for Charlie Barnet's 1949 band. It wasn't recorded until 1952. The arrangement featured Barnet on soprano saxophone but no part was actually written for him. Throughout much of the arrangement the alto saxophone 2 part was blank leading one to believe that Al was planning to re-score this and use it as an alto feature for another band. For this publication we have put the melody into the alto saxophone 2 part so that no soprano soloist is required. The arrangement features solos for tenor saxophone, trombone, and piano.
