No bari part. BG's band didn't have one.
However, it WAS common practice right after the war ended and there
was sudden prosperity, for previously 4-man sax sections to add a
baritone, who would read off the Alto 1 book, thus changing all the
4part block voicings into Supersax-type voicings. So give that a try,
or else just sit out to be historically accurate.

Greetings, List,
Does anyone know what the sax instrumentation was on this no longer
published arrangement of this classic Goodman arrangement? I am
playing a
concert tonight and tomorrow night and have to sit holding my Bari
while the
band plays. What we have is clarinet, two altos and one 1st
tenor. Was
there a 2nd tenor (or Bari)? Anyone know where we could get the
(possibly)
missing part?

Thanks in advance,
