Brass Quintet

Alexander's Ragtime Band
by Irving Berlin
arr. Zack Smith
Price: $10

Transposed parts can be ordered.


This version of the Irving Berlin classic begins with the lesser known intro verse, then moves to the more recognizable melody.  It starts in a ragtime feel, then eventually moves to swing and goes through a couple key changes in the process.  Though there are several other versions of this on the market, we think this one is much more playable than some of the others (and we won't name names!).  Everyone gets a taste of the melody at some point, and trumpet 2 and trombone have the option of ad libbing if they wish.  Sure to be a hit with older audiences!
