On a Misty Night

This is sweet! This Tadd Dameron swing classic scored for young jazz bands doesn't try to be overly clever or tricky. It's just straight-ahead swing style at a moderate tempo all the way. There is an abundance of nice ensemble passages and short written solos for tenor and trumpet. And don't miss the interesting  and accessible sax soli. An outstanding vehicle for teaching the swing style, it's also playable with optional reduced or expanded instrumentations. Our highest recommendation!
