Various Big Bands
Notes:
- Count-in included. I used different versions. I like the Motown Piano & Brass kit because the sound of the brass appeals to me; I used the STAX 4 octave piano & brass because of the greater range of the piano. All in all, had a lot of fun working this one up. Probably a great tribute to the Greatest Generation and appropriate for Veteran’s Day, 2024.
- What’s updated? Different source file (not included); additional versions; adjusted velocities; refreshed cheat sheet.
