Hal Leonard Bye Bye Blackbird ShowTrax CD Arranged by Steve Zegree

Here is a swinging arrangement of the great American standard in a style reminiscent of the Count Basie big bands of the 1950's. Opening in a spare style with unison vocals over a bass line, the texture gradually fills out to two parts, then solo with choir back-up, and finally a modulation to a full four-part conclusion. Great for developing improvisation skills!
