Edition: Jazz Saxophone Quartet Arrangement

Description: Swing - Difficult

Publisher: FOURjazz

SATB. Layered and varied rhythms set an ostinato foundation for the opening melody in the tenor. All saxophones have solo spots with each accompaniment different. At the end of the alto solo, the other saxes join one at a time until a complex group improv section is reached. Breaking from the polyphonic group improv, the quartet hits the shout solid on beat one to sustain half-notes before moving on to the diversity of the rest of the shout. Ending the tune is a fade-out vamp under tenor improvisation. Medium difficult.
