SWEETHEARTS ON PARADE - Free Jazz Leadsheet

sweethearts on parade, composed by Carmen Lombardo with lyrics by Charles Newman in 1928, is a lively jazz standard known for its upbeat melody and swinging rhythm. It is commonly performed in big band and small ensemble settings.

Popular recordings by Guy Lombardo and Louis Armstrong helped establish its place in the jazz repertoire, where it remains a favorite for ensemble interplay and improvisation.

The tune follows a 32-bar AABA form, providing space for solos, dynamic ensemble phrasing, and rhythmic drive.
