Bradley jumps from the first bar and never lets go. This straight ahead swinger was written as a trumpet feature, but includes solo parts for all instruments. The soulful chord progression sounds hip but is very easy to play over. Brass ranges are moderate, making this a perfect vehicle for the developing or advanced soloist. Full Score.

This arrangement calls for a very lazy feel. Keep saxes quiet behind the piano solo (measures 21-25), and work on the split triplets in measures 35-36 since they offer a great opportunity to produce some clean ensemble playing. Measure 43 is very full before the chart quiets down to a whisper for the ending.

Feature your young piano player on this classic Boogie Woogie by Andy Clark. Quite playable and tremendously appealing to audiences, this is a great way to let your pianist get out of the shadows of the band and into the limelight. The Piano solo will sound great on either acoustic or electric keyboards and the piano part is completely written out so that it requires no improvisation.

Recor ded on the Sammy Sammy Nestico CD This Is The Moment, this revised arrangement does not call for flutes, woodwinds, French horns or tuba, though some additional personnel (second keyboard/synthesizer, mallets, 2 percussion) are needed. This is a real specialty number that can't be played by every group, but bear in mind that it sounds more difficult than it really is. It is great fun to play, individual parts are not extreme, and the bright tempo doesn't call for a lot of fancy syncopation. With some committed rehearsal, this will work well on a diversified program.
