(Level IV) Bitter Jug is an uptempo swing tune featuring an original melody written over the chord changes to Fats Waller's Jitterbug Waltz. Solos can be played by any instruments, and there is a long soli workout for the saxophones. With strong melodic content in all parts, this is a chart that really allows the band to swing.
