(The) Birth of the Blues

A nice easy-goin’ swing chart for the first year jazz group. Master arranger Mike Lewis scored this jazz classic to feature plenty of ensemble with a brief written trumpet solo (the trumpet range in only to fourth space E.) Requiring minimal rehearsal time, this chart will sound great even with reduced instrumentation. Teach easy swing figures, have fun and play jazz! This title is available in MakeMusic Cloud. (2:46)
