Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement With Vocal

Description: Swing - Medium

Publisher: Lush Life Music

Originally arranged by Sy Oliver for the Jimmie Lunceford band, the same arrangement was used by Oliver when he led his own orchestra. this transcription has been done using both recordings as reference sources. The chart is scored for a standard 5/4/4/4 big band line up plus male vocal, with the instrumentalists in the band doing the majority of the singing. The male vocal part (originally taken by Oliver himself) takes the little verse (in Eb) prior to the band vocal and provides the answer-back to the band vocal chorus. The vocal chorus key is Ab. Both the alto and tenor sax solos are written out as-played and there are no instrument doubles in the saxes. The drum solo before the shout is also written out, though your drummer is free to improvise a solo here if preferred. This chart will be a genuine crowd pleaser (they can join in the singing too) and will work in a gig or concert setting.
