Effective Piano Support for Jazz Ensemble
While designed for full jazz ensemble, the piano part within this 'Satin Doll' arrangement is well-crafted for its supporting role. The Grade 3 texture provides a solid harmonic and rhythmic foundation for the band, allowing a vocalist to easily sit in. It effectively supports the overall medium swing feel rather than doubling the melody, crucial for an authentic ensemble sound. A great piece for developing ensemble cohesion.

Fun to Play Duke Ellington with My Band!
I absolutely love playing this 'Satin Doll' arrangement! As an adult learner, the Grade 3 level is perfectly achievable and so enjoyable. Mark Taylor's take on this Duke Ellington classic sounds fantastic and really captures that authentic swing feel. My community band has had a blast with the flexible solo sections. It’s a rewarding piece that truly makes us sound great.

Solid Ensemble Arrangement of a Classic
A reliable Grade 3 chart of 'Satin Doll' for a jazz ensemble gig. The medium swing style is right on point, and the arrangement by Mark Taylor provides a very playable framework. Crucially for gigs, the solo section is well-structured with implied chord symbols, making it easy for soloists. With 56 pages of score and parts, it's a complete package, though page turns might require some planning depending on your setup.
