Band concert band - Grade 2
Composed by Drew Shanefield. Beginning Concert BandWorks. Score and set of parts. Neil A. Kjos Music Company #WB374. Published by Neil A. Kjos Music Company (KJ.WB374).

Item Number: KJ.WB374

This piece is great fun n and a terrific way to introduce your concert band to swing-style jazz! Adding finger snaps and rhythmic whisperings of jazz as indicated will invigorate your performers and your audience. Blue notes and flatted sevenths offer younger students a new and exciting (yet accessible) harmonic language.

    "A Little Jazz" is a keeper! The kids love the 12 bar blues progression, the finger snaps and the "jazz" whispers. It is really effective! The ending is a gas too. Check this one out if you are looking to program a jazz selection in your concert.

    So often it is tricky to get a substantial piece for MS kids to play that addresses jazz - one that is eductional and entertining. This one hits the mark! (IMHO). My kids this summer couldn't stop playing it. When the band office door was shut, this is the one...

    I heard them playing on their own. As a non-jazzer, "A Little Jazz" is very approachable and worthy.
