Razzle Dazzle!
Watch on YouTube:
Razzle Dazzle! is a piece for flute solo in "swing" style, inspired by show-stopping stage and screen dance routines!

Play it with either a live piano accompaniment, or a lively "Big-Band" style backing track.

I've also included backing tracks featuring a) Piano, Bass and Drums, and b) Piano only.

Who were they?
Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers created a movie partnership that spanned ten motion pictures and revolutionized the use of dance in film.
Together, they defined a genre and enchanted audiences everywhere.

They first featured together in the film "Flying Down to Rio" (1933), and continued their successful partnership with titles such as "The Gay Divorcee" (1934), "Top Hat" (1935),"Shall We Dance" (1937) and "The Barkleys of Broadway" (1949).

Astaire, alongside Cary Grant, was referred to as “the best dressed actor in Hollywood,” immaculately outfitted with his signature top hat and tails.
