Description:
A timeless jazz standard with an irresistible melody built on a rising sequence, this fully flexible arrangement works with as few as five players plus rhythm, or a full ensemble - winds, strings, or any combination. Ranges are limited, and a transcribed solo (plus an easier version) is included for all instruments. Piano and bass parts feature notated comping to support the youngest players. A versatile, accessible, and endlessly playable chart.
Whether you have just five players (plus rhythm) or an unusual mix of instruments, this chart has you covered. Some ideal combinations include:
> Jazz Combo: alto sax, trumpet, tenor sax, trombone, bari sax, and rhythm section (as recorded)
> Saxophone section: alto, alto, tenor, tenor, bari, and rhythm section
> Brass quintet: trumpet, trumpet, horn, trombone, tuba, and rhythm section
> String orchestra: violin, violin, viola, cello, section bass, and rhythm section
> Or go wild - mix and match to your heart's content
For soloists, tenor saxophonist Evan Drybread's recorded solo is thoughtfully transcribed on the back of each part (appropriately transposed, of course) . There's also an easier suggested solo, crafted from Evan's original, to spark creativity in developing players.
