Bach never sounded more cool or hip! This classic masterpiece is transformed into a swinging chart with a walking bass line, including a written solo for all instruments and suggested notes for improvised solos. This arrangement transports students to a world where jazz and Baroque styles unite in perfect harmony.

String Orchestra
Excelcia Music


The original version for jazz ensemble has now been realized for the young string orchestra. This bluesy, swinging chart uses a pizzicato walking bass line throughout, a written violin solo, and lots of tutti rhythms, making this an excellent and accessible choice for a young ensemble just starting on the path to learning jazz. Drum set part optional but recommended.
