SKU: JL.LL-1059

By Woody Herman. Arranged by Bob Martin. Swing. Full score and set of parts. Published by Lush Life (JL.LL-1059).

This is pure Woody Herman, and a great transcription by Bob Martin of the original Nat Pierce chart. The Jazz Me Blues is an old dixieland tune of the 1920s, and this arrangement lifts it into a new sphere altogether. Written in the 'Four Brothers' style, it is scored for three Tenors, Baritone and Clarinet (though we include duplicate parts for Alto sax, making it playable by a standard section line-up with Tenor lead), with solo's for Cclarinet, Tenor and Trombone. With a nice arranging twist there is even a cameo passage of dixieland built into the final chorus, just to remind us where the tune originally came from. A cracking swing chart.Ranges:Trumpets 1-5 G6, D6, Bb5, G5 Trombones 1-4 G4, Gb4, E4, E4.
