Alto saxophone 1 and trumpet 2 play the head on this swinging chart accompanied by the rest of the band in stop time. Those two players are also featured in the solo spotlight before a wonderful sax soli with trumpet (or flugelhorn) lead. The next chorus will showcase the full ensemble's technique with a unison line played pp. The final shout chorus ends with a well-crafted surprise down ending that is the perfect way to finish off this classy chart.

The special instrumentation of the big band guarantees amazing tuttis but equally allows the opportunity to perform quiet ballads. Playing in a big band is an experience you will not forget in a hurry. Unfortunately, playing a solo - as the genre name suggests - is reserved for only a few. However, with this book, you can be the center of attention as you get the opportunity to play the leading part in these swinging pieces. Almost all the pieces have been newly written in the syle of the great big bands but you will also come across two famous hits: Barry Manilows sultry Copacabana and Stevie Wonder's fabulous You Are the Sunshine of My Life..
