Lots of unisons and moderate ranges make Flat Tire Shuffle a perfect introduction to swing style. Idiomatic rhythms and clean rhythm section writing will make this one easy for young jazz bands. This chart features completely flexible instrumentation and is playable by four horns and rhythm section on up to standard jazz ensemble format and beyond. Regardless of the selected instrumentation, it will sound full and complete. Young soloists can improvise using only the notes of the concert Bb mixolydian scale with the provided transposed scale sheet. Any instrument can solo, and the solo section can be repeated as many times as necessary with backgrounds cued as desired. For soloists wishing not to improvise, there is a suggested solo included in all parts. Ultimately flexible and highly recommended!!
