Ain't She Sweet

Here's a nice change-of-pace arrangement. A very mellow swing chart with muted trumpets gives an unusual color to the sound of the band. The ensemble sound is the feature on this creative Mike Lewis arrangement. A few brief piano solo fills and no horn solos will perk up the listening skills of your musicians--guaranteed. You can teach how to hold back the volume, lay back the feel, and strive for tight ensemble kicks, a great learning tool for the entire band. The rhythm section can focus on playing with simplicity and sparseness, and here's a bonus: the audience will recognize this tune. This chart will help you teach them how to do it right!
