Product Description

This is a light-hearted, bright, punchy number and the perfect piece to showcase your vocalist and saxophone section. Always a crowd pleaser, this original tune was inspired by the Tonight Show orchestra and is filled with nods to the Tonight Show band including the players and some of their recordings. Written over rhythm changes in the key of Bb there is a half chorus solo for trumpet or your "Doc", half of a chorus scat solo for the vocalist, a rousing shout chorus, and an entire chorus of a "Parker-eque" soli for the saxophones. No sax doubles but saxophones must have nimble fingers to pull this one off. The vocalist can participate in the soli with the saxophone section if desired. Perfect for college bands who need something new and different for their program. Music and lyrics by Wendy Jones. Big band arrangement by trombonist and big band arranger/composer David Wilken. Level: Difficult.
Vocal range Ab3 - C5 (G6 if opting to sing the soli with the saxes)
5/4/4/4
