Edition: JAZZ BIG BAND ARRANGEMENT

Description: DIFFICULT "Composed for the 2000 MidWest Clinic, and in tribute to pioneering jazz educator, J. Richard Dunscomb, For JR is alternately beautiful and exciting. The style is straight eighth, with a warm main theme featuring piano, then soprano sax. The orchestration is colorful and lush. The contrasting section is a 7/4 cascara! The cascara section has excitement and climaxes into the piece, and is also a solo vehicle for alto sax. Some sax doubles."
