Description:
Leroy Anderson's (1908-1975) Jazz Pizzicato, written in 1938, was the first of his works to be performed by the Boston Pops after he came to the attention of the pops orchestra's director, Arthur Fiedler. It was an immediate hit, and Fiedler encouraged him to write more original compositions for the orchestra, of which 1939's Jazz Legato was the next, starting a succession of works that have since become well known. Instrumentation: 2.2.2.2: 3Sax(AAT.opt.): 4.3.3.0: Perc(1): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set). Both this original published edition and a new Mark Rogers edition, which includes a new full score, are available from the publisher.
