It's All About That Double Bass

Don't be frightened by this chart's title! In reality, this new arrangement from the prolific pen of Tom Kubis is a mellow, Basie-influenced medium tempo swinger. As expected, the bass is featured as the main soloist, handling both melodic and improvisational duties at various points. The shout chorus is not overly difficult rhythmically, but is a bit rangey in the brass and will require a section with good endurance.
