Description:
An up-tempo opener or closer that alternates between swing and latin, The Hang, features a driving post-bop melody for the saxophone section. The trumpet section also shares the melody and combined with the trombone section, provides powerful accents and unison figures that propel the energy forward throughout. Solo sections feature a soprano solo over the form and an open tenor solo accompanied by an afro-cuban groove in the rhythm section that allows for harmonic and rhythmic interplay. Doubles: alto 1 - soprano.
