Effective Piano Support for Ensemble
As a pianist in a jazz ensemble, I found this 'Caravan' arrangement quite effective. The piano part, while geared for a beginning Grade 1-2 group, provides solid harmonic and rhythmic support. It clearly outlines the changes for comping, allowing the pianist to contribute effectively to the overall big band sound. A great foundation for understanding and contributing to ensemble texture in a jazz setting.
