Effective Ensemble Accompaniment
For a jazz ensemble, the piano part in this 'Dancing in the Street' arrangement is an effective and supportive accompaniment. It integrates well within the overall Motown texture without overpowering. While designed for the full band, the arrangement faithfully delivers the original song's soulful energy, a great piece for ensemble vocalists.

Fun, Authentic Motown Experience!
As an adult learner, I absolutely love playing 'Dancing in the Street'! This Grade 3 ensemble arrangement by John Wasson really brings that classic Martha Reeves and the Vandellas Motown feel to life. It's challenging enough to be engaging but totally achievable for weekend playing. So much fun to sound like the record!
