Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Easy

Publisher: Hal Leonard

Written in a medium swing tempo and based on modal harmonies, this effective original uses question and answer statements between the saxes and brass. The solo section allows young players to focus on a single scale for 8 measures at a time.

These full-length Grade 1.5 arrangements are the perfect “next step” for bands using the EE Jazz method, and also stand on their own as great easy charts for young players.

• Full recording included

• Each arrangement is a self-contained teaching unit with exercises for melody, rhythm and improvisation
