Be-bop for big band! Jack Cooper masterfully arranged Tadd Dameron's composition "Hot House" for the Jazz Band Series. Based on the chord changes to What Is This Thing Called Love, Hot House has been played and recorded by all the jazz masters. Jack Cooper keeps your sax section working by stating the melody with a section soli. The improvised solo space (written solos provided) is for alto, tenor, and trumpet. Mix in the reasonable brass ranges and you've got yourself a fine chart on a jazz classic.
