Description
The quintessential Dixieland favorite Bill Bailey (Won’t You Please Come Home?) is given a spirited and authentic jazz treatment by Dennis Armitage. The arrangement captures the “hot” syncopated rhythms and the “front-line” improvisational style of New Orleans jazz within the brass band framework. It is a high-energy entertainment item that encourages a relaxed, swinging feel from the ensemble. A perfect choice for getting the audience’s toes tapping and a sure hit at any outdoor or “Pops” concert.
Difficulty 3
(Medium) Fourth year players, or junior high-level students may require these arrangements to be properly challenged. These generally have free use of syncopation as well as section and solo scoring. Cues and cross cues will also be used less.
