About this arrangement

Concert Band - Grade 5 SKU: BT.NNS9790261712927 Composed by Gordon Goodwin. Arranged by Reid Gilje. Pop & Rock. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2017. Norsk Noteservice #NNS9790261712927. Published by Norsk Noteservice (BT.NNS9790261712927). “Sing Sang Sung” is inspired by “Sing Sing Sing” from the legendary 1938 Carnegie Hall Concert by Benny Goodman & His Orchestra. The famous “Jungle Groove” presented by drummer Gene Krupa and the opening riff from the 1938 performance is retained in this brilliant, swinging tune composed by Gordon Goodmin. The style changes from swing to “jungle groove” (with extensive use of tom-toms), is essential for both these tunes. The best sound recording of “Sing Sang Sung” is “Swingin’ For the Fences” by Gordon Goodwin Big Phat Band released in 2000. But, you should also listen to the original “Sing Sing Sing” from the 1938 Benny Goodman recording as well!
