The Creeper

This cool swing chart has a tempo that’s right on target, around 120 bpm. No solos, just ensemble with modest brass ranges with 1st trumpet range to written E-flat, top space. And don’t forget to check out the “misterioso” bridge section. A sweet chart. (2:58) “The melody has a cool, minor-mode sound, similar to the ‘Odd Couple’ theme. Because there are no improv sections this is a great chance to focus on ensemble playing and swinging.” -The Instrumentalist
