Edition: Jazz Quintet Arrangement [2 Horns with Rhythm Section]

Description: Swing - Medium

Publisher: Second Floor Music

Trumpeter ROY HARGROVE is one of jazz's rising young stars. Like Geoff Keezer, Hargrove has also proven himself an insightful composer, often combining forms and rhythms in his arrangements (see his sextet arrangement). At the recorded tempo this arrangement presents a number of challenges: matching phrasing of complex unison lines between the two horns, irregular form, and long stretches of syncopations that desperately try to work their way onto a downbeat. However, it also works very well at a more moderate tempo at which these issues become much less formidable and well within the grasp of a reasonably well-versed jazz quintet. SOLOS: The changes and form are irregular and will require some practice.
