This could be the start of something big

Based on the real flag waving Quincy Jones/Count Basie version from "This Time by Basie" transcribed by Jerry Sheppard. Basie took this at a cracking 250 beats per minute. However it works equally well at a steadier 184. Written solos for piano, tenor and baritone (cued on first alto). High/low trumpet parts mean that it can be played with a lead trumpet no higher than A. Key F. Taken down a Minor 3rd and simplified to suit Amateur/School bands.
