Take The "A" Train by Duke Ellington Jazz Ensemble - Digital Sheet Music

By Duke Ellington

Get on board for a ride with one of jazz’s most iconic tracks, Billy Strayhhorn’s composition and Duke Ellington’s theme Take The A Train. This transcription of Strayhorn’s arrangement is based on two recordings made by Ellington’s band; the original 1941 recording and a 1962 short film commissioned by the Goodyear Tire Company. Featuring the legendary Ray Nance trumpet solo, this chart is a must-have for Ellington fans and swing enthusiasts alike. Moderate brass ranges make it accessible for most ensembles (Trumpet to C6, Trombone to A4), while the authentic voicings and rhythmic drive will have audiences tapping their feet and dreaming of Harlem nights. A timeless chart for concerts, festivals, or any celebration of jazz. www.bemus.com.au
