Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement

Description: Gospel Ballad - Medium Easy

Publisher: Alfred Music Publishing

This great gospel-style chart will work not only for the holidays, but also for any time of the year. Designed for the younger band, this arrangement takes you through a slow gospel, a gospel rock and then a swing feel, and it all works like a charm. Roy Phillippe's first-class chart makes teaching and learning these jazz styles so easy because it's user-friendly for your students. It features slow gospel block chord scoring with an easy 12/8 feel, straight-eighths gospel rock and full ensemble swings for the shout chorus. A brief trumpet solo, a written tenor solo with ensemble backgrounds and the customary flexible instrumentation options complete this package. It's a super chart with great appeal. You'll love it!
