Here is one of the most famous and groundbreaking big band arrangements from the early swing era.

The syncopation will require special attention, especially by trumpets 1 and 2 who play against each other. Alto 1 doubles on clarinet. If you're looking for a fast showcase for your band, this is it! Ranges: Trumpet 1: to C6 Trombones 1 and 2: to Bb4
