Blues for a New Day

Here is a great medium swing blues tune for beginning jazz ensembles. The main theme features the rhythm section playing "stop time" before it slips into a steady swing pattern. There is a solid ensemble chorus leading to the solo section that can be used for any player. These full-length Grade 1.5 arrangements are the perfect "next step" for bands using the EE Jazz method, and also stand on their own as great easy charts for young players. * Written for full band/playable with 3 saxes, 2 trumpets, 1 trombone and rhythm section * Full recording included * Each arrangement is a self-contained teaching unit with exercises for melody, rhythm and improvisation * Includes opt. parts for flute, clarinet, F horn and tuba
