Pickin’ the Cabbage (reduction)
as performed by Cab Calloway and His Orchestra
$60
Written for Cab Calloway’s band, Pickin’ the Cabbage is Dizzy Gillespie’s first ever big band composition. The slick tune features a great melody for a trio and many hints of modern bebop and afro-cuban music that would later be Gillespie’s trademark. Alto doubles on clarinet, optional guitar part included. Big band version also available.
