Description:
A somewhat mournful but haunting ballad dedicated to the late great jazz trumpet stylist, a New Orleans native who made his name with the bands of Lionel Hampton and Count Basie.This chart features three of your trumpeters, or all four, whichever you prefer.There are written and improv solos for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th chairs, while the lead player has an eight-measurewritten solo on the final bridge of the tune. Chart goes into double time for the improv solos, then returns to ballad tempo. Easy medium chart. Recorded by Frank Foster and the S.W.R. Big Band on 'Fresh Taste of Thad Jones...'.
