Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Swing - Difficult

Publisher: Walrus Music Publishing

Here's a burning minor blues that will showcase and challenge any advanced ensemble. This chart provides more than ample solo space and is a wonderful vehicle for the drummer who plays the melody at the top of the chart. Muted brass work creates some cool sonorities and a rousing shout chorus takes you home. Thanks to my college buddy Marshall for the nickname and inspiration. Lead trumpet to written D6. As recorded by the New England Jazz Ensemble.
