Chicago is a high-energy, big band bebop arrangement on the popular standard that Mike wrote for Maynard Ferguson's band. It is a bright-swing chart that features solos by alto saxophone, piano, drums and 2 trumpet players. This is the original chart with added, optional parts to fill things out to a standard big band instrumentation. If you want a "dynamite" opener, this is the chart for you. 5-4-4-3.
