Jazz ensemble (5-4-4-4) - Grade 4-5

SKU: S1.SMP-390

Composed by Oliver Nelson. Arranged by Oliver Nelson. Oliver Nelson Big Band Series. Swing. Score and set of parts. Published by Sierra Music (S1.SMP-390).

There may not be a more beautiful ballad anywhere in jazz ensemble literature. This is an alto saxophone feature throughout and was recorded on the Full Nelson album and also included in the Verve Jazz Masters collection CD. This is a stunning piece, which has a decidedly orchestral/classical sound to it. The possibility of using the original clarinet, flute oboe, bass clarinet and celeste parts makes this a most interesting and special piece. Regular saxophone parts are also included if doubles are not available. 5-4-4-4.
