Originally written in 1920 by Tom Delaney, and recorded over the years by Bix Beiderbecke, the Original Dixieland Jazz Band and many others, this medium-advanced swing/Latin setting commissioned by IMEA for the 2015 Illinois All-State Jazz Ensemble gives the tune a contemporary attitude for a whole new generation of jazz musicians. Scoring calls for SATTB saxophones, however an optional alto sax substitute part for soprano is included in each set. Duration 5:44. |
