Arranged for student bands by Cy Payne.
4 trumpets, 4 trombones, 5 saxes (AATB), 3 Bb clarinets, 3 flutes, horn in F, 4 rhythm, full score. Limited brass ranges. Guitar chord frames.
Cy Payne is one of the UK’s most versatile arrangers, with over 50 years’ experience of writing and directing for many leading recording artists, West End shows, films and TV. He has also written for top military bands, including the massed bands for the Trooping of the Colour. For 10 years he has directed the Downham Market Swing Orchestra, a mixed ability amateur band. We have selected a few of his arrangements for our Swing Band Series, which are just right for school bands where limited brass ranges are particularly important. There are no jazz / improvised solos.
