The special instrumentation of the big band guarantees amazing tuttis but equally allows the opportunity to perform quiet ballads. Playing in a big band is an experience you will not forget in a hurry. Unfortunately, playing a solo - as the genre name suggests - is reserved for only a few. However, with this book, you can be the center of attention as you get the opportunity to play the leading part in these swinging pieces. Almost all the pieces have been newly written in the syle of the great big bands but you will also come across two famous hits: Barry Manilow's sultry Copacabana and Stevie Wonder's fabulous You Are the Sunshine of My Life.
