This musical salute to Broadway is designed for performance by a wide range of ensembles including accomplished middle school to community and professional groups. Styled after a typical Broadway overture, the arrangement covers a variety of styles including lyrical, two-beat, soft-shoe, and a Dixieland-style segment featuring solo clarinet, trumpet, trombone, tuba, and percussion. A grand finale reminiscent of John Phillip Sousa brings this to a rousing conclusion. Exciting!
About FJH Young Band
Appro priate for middle school and smaller high school groups. Second clarinets usually stay below the break. Parts are written with more independence, and instrumentation increases slightly. There is still adequate doubling in the lower voices. Grades 2 - 2.5

Introduce your band and audiences to a little 2-beat and some jazz history with this easy to prepare arrangement of this great jazz standard. Originally a ragtime piano piece, That's-A-Plenty is most commonly associated with Dixieland music. This arrangement now makes it available to jazz bands at the medium-easy level. There's lots of fun for all the sections, including some smeared notes for the bones and some short solis for the saxes. The drummer gets some tom-tom work a la Gene Krupa, and while there are no improvised solos, one (or all) of the trumpets gets to do a written out call and response solo back and forth with the rest of the band. This one is a guaranteed crowd pleaser!
