Arranged in a medium swing/shuffle style, here is a very easy version of this jazz standard by Sonny Rollins that maintains the style and feel of the original. Featuring a mix of tutti playing and also call and response scoring, this is a great way to introduce a jazz legend to your young players. There is a written or ad lib solo for any trumpet or alto sax, and the shout chorus features a dialogue between the ensemble and drums.

A jazz standard from the legendary Sonny Rollins, “Doxy” is arranged here in a very playable and appealing swing setting for little big band. Tenor sax, baritone sax and trombone take the lead in the beginning and an open solo section for any instrument adds to the chart’s flexibility.
