Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Latin Rock - Medium

Publisher: Paul Baker Jazz

Inspired by the Latin rock style of Carlos Santana, this chart leans heavily on the guitar and rhythm section and is an excellent opportunity to feature the guitarist, and pianist, and bassist, and drummer, in your ensemble. Written solos are provided for both guitar and piano (electric, preferably) and electric bass (trading 2s with the brass). The sax section gets and 8 bar solo before the ensemble returns in full to lead us into the open drum solo. A cascading horn line closes out the chart. The title is derived from this chart's chord changes which are loosely based on a minor version of Gershwin's "I've Got Rhythm" progression. Trumpet range is to written C. Trombone range is to G.
