SKU: NC.681

Composed by Richard Lawn. This edition: Trumpet range to Eb6. Blues, Slow, Jazz, Swing, Medium. Score and set of parts. Published by UNC Jazz Press (NC.681).

(Level III) Clever arranging and tasteful orchestration give this "ensemble feature" a fresh yet traditional look at swing. An introduction marked by interesting bass, trombone and brush work gives way to a light two beat presentation of the head before settling into a moderate tempo straight-ahead groove. The ensemble gets a chance to show its teeth as the piece half-times into a slow, hard bluesy feel and a brief stop time section en route to the original tempo and a great ending. Brief solos for soprano, bari and piano. Alto I-sop., Alto II, Ten. I & II-fl., Bari-fl./picc. 8 Brass.
