Hit the Reset (Jazz Ens Gr. 1.5)

Hit The Reset is a swinging piece harking back to the days of the Big Band era when the likes of the Duke Ellington and Count Basie Orchestras were producing classic recordings and entertaining audiences worldwide. During the recent global pandemic many people were able to re-evaluate what was important in their lives. For some, it was a chance to move to the country, change jobs, spend more time with family, listen to those favourite old records and dance with the people closest to them. It is time to "hit the reset."
