Summertime (from Porgy And Bess) (arr. Paul Murtha)

This enduring Gershwin classic has long been a favorite with jazz artists. Paul’s marvelous setting for young players features a sultry Latin rock groove, tasty harmonies, easy rhythms, and no solos are required. Great feature number for the entire ensemble.

Discovery Jazz series titles are written for full band, playable with 3 saxes, 2 trumpets, 1 trombone, and rhythm section. Each arrangement includes optional parts for flute, clarinet, F horn, and tuba. Full-length recordings are available for each arrangement online.
