George Gershwin: Summertime (from Porgy and Bess): (Arr. Michael Sweeney): Jazz Band

Set in a distinctive medium swing/shuffle groove, Michael's version for young ensembles presents a contemporary styling of this classic song from Porgy and Bess®. Mixing a variety of ensemble textures, a stop time solo section, and briefly slipping into a new key during the final chorus, this is sure to be a standout for festival or casual concert use. Solos are included for tenor sax and trumpet.
