Original

Division Street Blues composed by Ethan Freier. Band. For jazz ensemble. Standard of Excellence Jazz Ensemble Method. Jazz. Grade 1. Score and set of parts. Published by Neil A. Kjos Music Company. KJ.ZB380. Every young band needs an up-tempo "flag waver" to end a concert, and from the very opening bassline, this swing tune packs a special energy. In the words of the composer, "I want the kids to feel the excitement building right to the end of this song. When that happens, the audience feels the excitement too, and that's a great feeling for everyone. " This tune is flexibly orchestrated so that it can be played by as few as 9 players. Additionally, everyone in the ensemble has an opportunity to improvise in the open solo section, and the set includes two suggested solos and a CD with a solo practice track, to facilitate successful improvisation. The Standard of Excellence Jazz Ensemble Method is designed to help both you and your jazz ensemble students explore the world of jazz through easy-to-use Rhythm Studies, Improvisation Studies, Instrument Specific Exercises, and full ensemble jazz charts. The approach is non-theoretical and aurally based. Each part book comes with an accompaniment CD, so like every great jazz player throughout history, students learn to play jazz by listening.
