For some arrangements "And That's Jazz" does this variation: everybody 
except trumpet, trombone and tuba drops out and we have a "Brass 
Chorale" - sometimes for just half a chorus and everybody else jumps in 
after the "half way break." Follow that with a key change for a rousing 
out chorus - works every time!
