Some tunes just live forever, and students always love to play them. Arranger Mike Lewis gives the least experienced jazz groups an opportunity to play this all time favorite. Simple triplet and swing figures, along with a lot of unison scoring, make this a natural for young jazz ensembles. You have to give this chart a look.
