Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement
Description: Blues/Swing - Medium Difficult
Publisher: Sierra Music
Gene Roland wrote for the Stan Kenton Orchestra for almost the entire history of the Kenton Band. He wrote the entire “Adventure in Blues” album for that band, and this is just one of many highly original, swinging charts on that recording. This is the edited version written for standard big band instrumentation (works great). This chart features the trombone section in a medium tempo blues. The Kenton Band played this chart for years. The soloist, of course, is your top trombonist. The piece was originally written for Bob Fitzpatrick who played on the Kenton Band and was Stan’s lead trombonist for many years. You will love this adaptation, which makes the chart very playable for most bands. 5-4-4-3
