Composed during a visit to Reno, Nevada—THE BIGGEST LITTLE CITY IN THE WORLD— Big Little City is an easy minor blues skillfully scored to make your band sound its best. Ideal for teaching classic swing style to young players, Sorenson’s focus on moody unison lines and contrapuntal textures give this chart a mature, sophisticated sound. Two solo sections offer students plenty of opportunities to stretch their minor blues chops or perform the written suggested solo. As with all First Place for Jazz charts, flexible instrumentation allows maximum student participation.
