About this arrangement

Big band - Medium Easy SKU: JL.LL-1227 By Ted Heath. Arranged by Myles Collins. Swing. Full score and set of parts. Published by Lush Life (JL.LL-1227). This wonderful version Hot Toddy is from the Ted Heath band, and features your Baritone player and second Trumpet. The chart opens with a rumbling Bari line backed by hand claps from the band. The Trombone section takes the first soli, the Saxes join for the second, backed by the Trumpets who then give a run-up to the muted Trumpet solo. This trumpet solo is written out as originally played, though your player can improvise from the chords if desired. The chart builds from here, with glissing Trombones against a unison Sax repeat of the melody riff leading into a big brass soli, and finishing up with a fading Trombone soli down to pianissimo, and a band blast to finish. Great fun and a real crowd pleaser too. Ranges: Trumpets 1-4: D6, B5, B5, B5 Trombones 1-4: A4, F#4, E4, C#4.
