Originally written in 2008 but revamped in 2013, Down to the Wire is a very traditional swing piece a la Sing Sing Sing but a bit less cool and a bit more intense. The name comes from what it would possibly sound like if you had to defuse a bomb in 1930s Chicago.

As always, please get in touch for any comments or requests. I’m happy to arrange this piece to suit your ensemble, whether you want it easier (or harder!) or simply for different instruments. I’m currently arranging this for an 11-piece band and hope to have a real recording up soon!
