James Rae’s “Jazz Ensemble” series was first published in the 1980s and quickly proved very popular. There were six separate titles in the series written for a flexible mixed ensemble, with parts provided for C, Bb, Eb, Bass, Easy Bass and Drums with a supporting piano part in the score. It was and still is ideal for the practical part of GCSE studies, catering as it does for almost any imaginable combination of instruments at an intermediate stage. It has now been given a makeover, with three of the original titles being put into each of two separate volumes, creating great value for money. The parts are now provided as free downloads from our website so you can provide for as large an ensemble as you wish at no extra cost. Inside this volume: “Oh when the Saints”, “Swing low, Sweet Chariot” and “The Camptown Races”. Volume 1 contains the well-known titles “Down by the Riverside”, “Joshua Fought the Battle of Jericho” and “Dry Bones”../ Recueil / Ensemble Flexible

Enregistré par Frank Sinatra pour son album de 1960 cet air est devenu un standard enregistré par de nombreux artistes de jazz. Plutôt que d?utiliser le style de swing de l?original Mark Taylor a façonné cette version magnifique au tempo modéré de bossa nova. Bien que le duo de trompette et de saxophone alto occupe le rôle principal la composition pour le reste de l?ensemble est excellente.

Snares off create a tom-tom effect to start this fast 2-beat swinger. Easy ranges and rhythms with mild syncopation help drive this one ?pedal to the metal.? Everyone is featured for four measures on a break chorus. If you cannot play this fast slow it down. It sounds great at a moderate 4-beat tempo as well. (1:31)
