Based on “Hänschen Klein” [“Little John”] this surely is the coolest version imaginable of this No.1 hit of people under the age of four. Written in Grade 4 and without doublings it is easy to play also for amateur bands. Different soloists possible. A brass soli, sax soli and a drum solo rounden up this Arrangemen, which is fun for everybody.
