Description:
Sy Oliver wrote a number of memorable charts for the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, such as Opus One and Swanee River. However, Well Get It is one of his finest, and yet not best known. A thumping swing chart that features first and second trumpet in a great duet near the end, and also including the original (written out) solos for trombone, clarinet and tenor. If you play to a jive or jitterbug crowd they will love this. Be warned though - it is a tough blow for the trumpets. The lead range is to high G and the second to high D. Second alto takes the clarinet double.
