Introduce your band and audiences to a little '2-beat' and some Jazz history with this easy to prepare arrangement of this great jazz standard. Originally a ragtime piano piece, 'That's-A-Plenty' is most commonly associate with Dixieland music. This arrangement now makes it available to jazz bands at the medium-easy level. There's lots of fun for all the sections, including some 'smeared' notes for the bones and some short solis for the saxes. The drummer gets some tom-tom work a la Gene Krupa, and while there are no improvised solos, one (or all) of the trumpets gets to do a written out 'call and response' solo back and forth with the rest of the band. This one is a guaranteed crowd pleaser!
