First recorded in September 1939, in the same session as Dickie's Dream, Lester Leaps In is a milestone chart which showcased the phenomenal talent of Lester Young. The arrangement evolved over time, easing in tempo, lengthening & gathering more band backing, until we arrive at this version. This chart simply swings from start to finish. We have transcribed all of the tenor solos, also the piano solos & bass line too, though chords are provided on the parts should your players wish to improvise. If you have a star tenor you wish to spotlight then Lester Leaps In is a perfect choice. There are no sax doubles.
