Perdido [Alf:00-JE9916C]

This dynamite new arrangement of the tune made famous by Duke Ellington finally makes this jazz standard available for younger jazz groups. Since this chart contains all ensemble writing and no solos, it's a great opportunity to get each section of your band really tight because they are all featured throughout the arrangement. There is something for everyone, and it also works with reduced instrumentation. PERDIDIO is another big winner from Mike Lewis! Easy (2:12)
