This transcription was made especially for Jazz at Lincoln Centers 201213
Eighteenth Annual Essentially Ellington High School Jazz Band Program.

pets, the lead trumpet is the boss. The lead alto and trombone
must listen to the first trumpet and follow him. In turn, the other
saxes and trombones must follow their lead players. When the
clarinet leads the brass section, the brass should not overblow
him. That means that the first trumpet is actually playing second. If this is done effectively, there will be very little balancing
work left for the conductor.
4. In Ellingtons music, each player should express the individuality of his own line. He must find a musical balance of supporting
and following the section leader and bringing out the character
of the underpart. Each player should be encouraged to express
his or her personality through the music. In this music, the
underparts are played at the same volume and with the same
conviction as the lead.
5. Blues inflection should permeate all parts at all times, not just
when these opportunities occur in the lead.
6. Vibrato is used quite a bit to warm up the sound. Saxes (who
most frequently represent the sensual side of things) usually
employ vibrato on harmonized passages and no vibrato on
unisons. The vibrato can be either heavy or light depending on
the context. Occasionally saxes use a light vibrato on unisons.
Trumpets (who very often are used for heat and power) use a
little vibrato on harmonized passages and no vibrato on unisons.
Trombones (who are usually noble) do not use slide vibrato. A
little lip vibrato is good on harmonized passages at times. Try to
match the speed of vibrato. In general unisons are played with
no vibrato.
7. Crescendo as you ascend and diminuendo as you descend.
The upper notes of phrases receive a natural accent and the
lower notes are ghosted. Alto and tenor saxophones need to use
sub-tone in the lower part of their range in order to blend properly with the rest of the section. This music was originally written
with no dynamics. It pretty much follows the natural tendencies
of the instruments; play loud in the loud part of the instrument
and soft in the soft part of the instrument. For instance, a high C
for a trumpet will be loud and a low C will be soft.
8. Quarter notes are generally played short unless otherwise notated. Long marks above or below a pitch indicate full value: not
just long, but full value. Eighth notes are played full value except
when followed by a rest or otherwise notated. All notes longer
than a quarter note are played full value, which means if it is
followed by a rest, release the note where the rest appears. For
example, a half note occurring on beat one of a measure would
be released on beat three.
chair did not use pixies. Rather, each of them employed a Nonpareil (thats the brand name) trumpet straight mute. Nonpareil
has gone out of business, but the Tom Crown Nonpareil trumpet
straight mute is very close to the same thing. These mute/
plunger combinations create a wonderful sound (very close
to the human voice), but they also can create some intonation
problems which must be corrected by the lip or by using alternate slide positions. It would be easier to move the tuning slide,
but part of the sound is in the struggle to correct the pitch. If
this proves too much, stick with the pixieits pretty close.
GLOSSARY
The following are terms which describe conventions of jazz
performance, from traditional New Orleans to the present avant
garde.
Break within the context of an ongoing time feel, the rhythm
section stops for one, two, or four bars. Very often a soloist will
improvise during a break.
Call and response repetitive pattern of contrasting exchanges
(derived from the church procedure of the minister making a
statement and the congregation answering with amen). Calland-response patterns usually pit one group of instruments
against another. Sometimes we call this trading fours, trad-
Riff a repeated melodic figure. Very often, riffs repeat verbatim or with slight alterations while the harmonies change
underneath them.
Shout chorus also known as the out chorus, the sock
chorus, or sometimes shortened to just the shout. It is the
final ensemble passage of most big band charts and where the
climax most often happens.
Note that the first voicing includes a 9th and the second voicing
includes a 9th and a 13th. The addition of 9ths, 11ths, 13ths, and
alterations are up to the discretion of the pianist and soloist.

beats 2 and 4. I'm not sure that this should be the function of
the pianist, but I included it because it is what is on the recording. If you are not hip to Ellington's genius as an accompanist,
checking out what he plays on this tune is a good place to
start. Note the amount of space he leaves--uncluttered and
always swinging.
The band unisons (C, D, etc.) are played f, but not blaring.
Accent the strong beats: C1 beats 1, 2+ and 4+. C3 beats 1, 3
and 4+. This keeps the music swinging and from sounding flat.
Don't forget to follow the natural flow of the line, and diminuendo slightly as you descend and crescendo as you ascend.
Exaggerating the dynamics impedes the flow and sounds affected. As Jimmy Stewart used to say, "Don't let 'em catch you
acting."
At E I recommend in the trombones on their long notes.
Similarly in the trumpets and saxes they can do a with a crescendo on their long note. This adds forward motion, personality and excitement.
At K make sure to have the saxes and trumpets play with
accent: K1 beat 3, K2 beats 1 and 2+. I would have the drums
catch this figure every time it comes up.
At M and N the trombones should be noble. The trumpet solo
that follows at O continues that heroic style. Cootie shows his
love for Louis Armstrong. I can't even imagine another way to
play this solo. Note that although the saxes are F under the
trumpet solo, the brass are f on their interruptions. At S make
sure that the saxes come down to mp under the clarinet solo.
In jazz it is generally the drummer's job to make the transitions
smooth. He needs to set up the dynamics of the next section,
so that when the horns come in, they know what volume to
play. This happens many times throughout this piece, not the
least of which is the last bar of T and the first bar of U. Speaking of dynamics, notice the terraced diminuendo at Y, Z and
AA and then the f drum set up of the surprise f reprise of the
melody. This is the parade going further and further down the
street and almost out of earshot, and then all of a sudden they
turn the corner and are right in front of you. This has got to be
one of the most exciting endings in all of jazz.
