Little Big Band - Grade 2
Rick Stitzel skillfully dresses up this amazingly simple melody with counterlines and solid scoring for the little big band format. Solos are provided for alto sax and trumpet, but with the easy blues changes anyone can take a shot at an improvised solo.

This sounds really appropriate for folks who are new to playing jazz.

Works for the young ones.

[@HH-le6lj]

Play it at x1.5, and it’s perfect😎

[@justxchoz]

ngl it kinda sounds bad when im putting it at 1.5x but if u actually play it at 1.5x it sounds good

[@justxchoz]

It's in C if you play trumpet or tenor sax.
