- SWEET GEORGIA BROWN
Product description
This early jazz standard became the theme song for the famed Harlem Globetrotters, and has remained popular through the years. Paul's clever version for flexible instrumentation passes the melody between upper and lower parts and even includes a stop-time section that features the percussion.
Ben Bernie (1981-1943) was an American jazz violinist, bandleader and radio personality, often referred to as "The Old Maestro".
Maceo Pinkard (1897-1962) was an American composer, lyricist and music publisher.
Kenneth Casey (January 10, 1899 – August 10, 1965) was an American composer, lyricist, publisher, author, and child movie star in early silents.
