(9 Brass) For years Clare Fischer's Morning has been a standard in the jazz world. Now Fischer has come up with two beautiful new renditions of this classic?one for big band (version A) and one for big band plus strings and French horn (version B). Both arrangements feature flute soli sections and some of Fischer's most inspired harmonic development and thoughtful reworking of his original thematic ideas. Both versions are the same price.
