This chart was recorded by the Count Basie Orchestra on the CD I Told You So. This is a rip-roaring, swinging chart. It starts with trombones and rhythm setting the time with simple halfnote figures. The saxes and trumpets join in with a swinging, exciting series of lines, and away we go ! One of the great shout choruses of all time! Features solo space for tenor sax, trombone, piano and drums. A great closer for your programs. 5-5-4-4.

This medium-swing original by Bob Curnow focuses on alto saxophone and trumpet playing the melody. The piece has solos for those instruments and bass (all written out). There is nice use of counterpoint in the introduction and ending. The piece is light in texture and very appropriate for middle school bands. The highest written note for trumpet is B. All rhythm parts are written out. 5-4-4-4.
