Flip Lid

Flip Lid

$80

Flip Lid comes at the peak of Les Brown’s band, coming out of the swing era with Lunceford and Basie sensibilities, but tapping into the bebop vocabulary of Dizzy Gillespie’s and Woody Herman’s bands. Featuring the trumpet section throughout the head and a well balanced shout chorus, this swingin’ chart sits right in between two eras of jazz. This is a very soft level 4, just a tad too difficult for level 3.
7-piece arrangement also available.
