This chart was written as a tongue in cheek belated wedding gift to the first ever married couple in the UNT One O’Clock Lab Band: Natalie and Kai Wagner. They both love old style swing music so this chart was designed to meet that criteria while featuring them at the same time. It’s a blast from the past while still being fun and fresh. The chart has extended solos for Alto Sax 1 and Bass as well as mini solis for every section of the ensemble.
